Custer's troops were cut down and largely out-numbered by the coalition of Native American tribes and the killed soldiers were stripped of their weapons and ammunition. This action, lead to the fire power decrease of the cavalry and resulting increase of the Native American Coalition. The final stand, that Custer and the survivors made, was shooting their remaining ammunition from behind the breastworks they created. The Natives did not stop, and closed in for their final blow. They attacked once more and killed every man in Custer's command.
