T38 2:10 PM 4 hours until dusk.

Sorry about the lack of spell check in the screen shots. The French IV Corps has crossed over the river with all its units a but has decided to leave one "B" moral division and all of its Corps level ARTY at leipzig just in case.. I know the Russian and the Prussians have some ability to repair the bridges but I do not want to take any chances that they will interfere with my master plan of crippling the southern allies army before I turn on the allies in the north. No Alba for me...


I can not explain it but the Austrian have chosen to take not one step back. He must have sent out Fuehrer Order No. 1, there will be no retreats on the Eastern Front!! And, the results are the same. Where a retreat of 10 to 15 hexes would have saved his three corps. But, NO! he whet on the offensive against me and it has kept his units in the pocket and not even the ARTY has made a run for the pike. I said to it might be best to back up a tad or a bit, like I said I can not explain it. I keep isolating the 1,000 man Austrian battalions and they do not last long with support on the flanks. Those strong INF units become a liability when they are Isolated and rout. Then in essence they become a 1,000 man loss, in one attack...
