Foz do Arouce 15th March 1811 - Despite Massena's orders to cross the Ceira and destroy the bridge, Ney decided to keep three brigades of infantry and some light cavalry on the opposite bank. Meanwhile, the British 3rd and Light Divisions caught sight of the enemy around 4pm and, despite the fact that the nearest reserves - the 6th Division - was still some way off, Wellington decided to attack.

Very interesting, with maneuver options on both sides. Great map. The French have enough strength to turn and fight to a win, I think, rather than run, as they did historically. The Allied player needs to be careful not to assume they will run for the bridge.
