The French Vivandiere manages to patch up a casualty , meanwhile on the left ......
The French Artillery open fire on the Prussian Jaegers .
The Uhlans charge into the flank of the French column ! , who fail their test and -
- are scattered and destroyed - Oh dear !
Things are not going well on the other flank as the French Infantry once again fail to rally .
The game is lost for the French with both flanks gone ! . A victory for the Prussians !
Think Emile Zola probably sums it up ! . A great game though, which I enjoyed and has got me wanting to paint up some more figures and let the French seek their revenge .
Your French need to learn to lose graciously, all this revanchism will just start another war nobody wants. Surely Elsaß–Lothringen is German anyway, so what's their problem?
