Same figures, different rules - end game .

 


Under heavy artillery and rifle fire one of the Prussian Infantry Regiments failed it's morale test and fled back a move .


The French capitalised on this and swung round one of their units  and the two Regiments poured fire onto the remaining leading Prussian unit.


On the other flank there was a seriesa of Cavalry clashes , the French retired under the protection of their guns as the Prussians where whittled away by their fire.(the Red heart signifise that the unit has passed it's first morale test - if it passed it's next it would automaticaly pass all other tests)


At this point The Prussian General decided to call off the attack as his Cavalry was weakened and the Infantry had suffered substancial casualties . It was interesting playing with historical forces rather than my Balkans Imaginations and I think I will use these rules again with some of the special rules/personalites added . The double size units looked good and although dishing out double casualties, they have of course twice the figues to kill before unit morale kick in .
