The last British monarch to go into battle was George the 2nd I think.
Before napoleon's time, he fought so many battles I have no idea

An acceptable answer, Napoleon 3rd vs Freidrich 3rd. However neither were in absolute command of the army. Any thoughts on the one with monarchs in absolute control? Also featuring napoleon 3rd.
