Fierce fighting at Lindenau
A very fierce fighting is developing around Lindenau. The Austrian commander, General Gyulai, has chosen to mask the garrisoned villages located at the French flanks, and make directly for the French centre and the bridge.
The defending redoubts have been taken and lost several times, and the superior Austrian cavalry has routed and dispersed all the French cavalry units, French Dragoons 'd'Espagne' inclusive. At this moment, 15.00 hours, only the flanking villages and the area near the bridge remain in French hands, while several previously routed French units are returning to the fight. Gyulai has been left almost without infantry, but he can still recall the detached units.
A last effort and the fate of Napoleon's Grande Armee will be decided!

A near run thing! I know you fight your battles solo but which side do you normally favour when playing?

ReplyDeleteI devise a battle plan for each side, and I try to follow it during all the game, using the dice when there are several alternatives... but I am usually pro-French ;-)
