I had a great game today using my modification to Commands and Colors Napoleonics to refight the Seven Years War battle of Lobositz.
Here is a view of the set up, Austrians at the top and Prussians at the bottom.
Austrian Croats occupy the Lobosch.
Austrian Cuirassiers given to me by Richard.
Much of the Austrian army is behind the Morellenbach.
The Morellenbach I counted as a fordable river.
Beverns infantry are tasked with taking the Lobosch.
The Prussian centre.
A couple of Richards Russian Generals lead the Prussian cavalry as I was short of Prussian ones.
Frederick the Great and Field Marshall Keith survey the battlefield.
A closer view.
A view down the Prussian line.
And a view down the Austrian line.
A Prussian cavalry charge as the Austrians attempt to cross the Morellenbach.
Hard fighting on the Lobosch.
Last card of the game!. Played by the Prussians.
They take the Lobosch.
And push the Austrians into the Elbe to win the battle.
The Austrians never really got across the Morellenbach.
And the Austrian centre was very depleted with both Von Browne and Count Lacy dead.
A cracking game, for my references I used Keith Flints Honours Of War rulebook and Kronoskaf. here
