The Lines of Torres Vedras - Massena's French army has arrived
at Sobral with the intention of marching on Lisbon, yet unaware
of the elaborate defensive lines that have been constructed to
defend the area around the Portuguese capital. Historically,
after a couple of minor actions at Sobral, Massena realized that
he would stand no chance of breaking through the enemy lines
and then sat down before them until his army starved. However,
this scenario gives the French player the opportunity to attempt
"the impossible". Might Massena have actually managed to crack
the Lines of Torres Vedras if he'd decided to launch an attack?
