The combat of Pitschenberg (IV)
Despite having been rejected in the first instance, the French return to the attack with renewed vigor.
 |
| The Prussian line fires on the approaching French |
 |
| Only to be rejected initially in the left flank: the W. Prussian Dragoons wins over the 5e Hussars that falls back... |
 |
| ...while the E. Prussia Grenadiers, taken in flank, also reject the 9e Hussars |
 |
| However, atop the hill the Prussian artillery is taken by surprise and crushed... |
 |
| The french have reached the Summit of the Pitschenberg... |
 |
| ... clearing it form Prussians, when the 3/112e breaks the 2/12th Reserve IR |
 |
| The 4/6e Légêre charges downhill and breaks the 2/Brandenburg IR, opening a hole in the center of the Prussian line!... |
 |
| ... and the French cavalry threatens to outflank the Allied line by the left |
To be continued....

Seems like the tides have been shifting back and forth with one side getting the upper hand for a bit and then the other side having the upper hand. Like a "real" battle. Also, makes for a good narrative, with tension and drama. And, I expect, it also makes for a fun solo game.
ReplyDeleteA titanic struggle; determined defence, aggressive attack--a most engrossing game is the result!
