Academic question really - the Scots always have been incapable of winning much other than the drinking competition and punch-up after the match.
If the Scots had been there, the battle would never have started - the Scots would have been in the nearest boozer hammered out of their heids !

While the Scots have a reputation as hard fighters, I don't think they'd have won at Gettysburg. After all, it was a war between Americans, and we get a mite testy if outsiders interfere--I think it would have had the effect of uniting the Rebels and the Yanks against a common foe.

It took the Scots 31 years to be free of the English, from William Wallace to Robert Bruce. It took the Americans 8 years to be free of Great Britain. Do the math, tuck your little skirts up and go play with the other little chaps.

No, the Americans would have pulled the scots skirts down and made them cry.
