		Notwithstanding the success of the Highland charge at Prestonpans, it was generally recognized by the more practical Jacobite commanders that their only real chance of victory lay with the securing of substantial military aid from abroad.
		Not only that, but the Highlanders did not compensate for changes in tactics effected in the British army that attached the bayonet to the muzzle, allowing their rifles to be simultaneously fired (thus taking away the advantages of the Highlanders had enjoyed at Prestonpans and Falkirk).
