Davout activates firsts and brings more units on board.
They keep up the pressure on the Russians attack towards the Schloss.
$th Column does its job being directed by independent command of Kutuzov, and force a few step losses on the HUGE 1st French Corps.
They will likely take this village and flag location this turn, but we can try and make it expensive at least?
Their attacks go in, we take some losses.
But for now the village holds.
We pounce on Davout, in an attempt to draw some attention away from the center!
Which end ups in a routing retreat for us.
Napoleon moves up.
In the North we make an attack to soften up the lines Lannes. But it is really a peiecemeal effort. And now the Grenadiers are approaching!
A big push by Davout hammers the Advanced Guard!
While not repulsed Soults forces take a few losses and are now face to face to the Russians. Their numbers will wear us down eventually. Turn Rolls pop the turn quickly and we are thankful for that, as the enemy is starting to get into a rhythm.
Next the Noon Turn.
If you lose, you’ll need to delete all of these posts as history is only written by the winners. 😉
