18 September 1808 - Historical - Intended to be played Head to Head or Solo as the Allied player vs. the AI (see RSW-Solo.pdf for Solo play victory levels) - NOTE: This scenario has Special Rules. See below. NARRATIVE: The situation by this time did not favor a Swedish offensive but nonetheless the Swedish king would not be deterred and scraped together an ad hoc force to land in the south. Splitting it up into two divisions he further weakened its mission. The 1st Division under Vegesack reinforced the Northern Finnish Army while the 2nd Division under Lantinghausen was to help cause an uprising in the area around Åbo. The Russians learned of the landing and Bagration's force rushed to the town of Lokalaks to repel the invaders. The Swedish force was both low on ammunition and morale. As a result all units in the game are LOW AMMO condition and the artillery only has twenty rounds total to fire. Morale is one to two grades lower than normal. The Swedes do not get any supply wagons in this scenario. SPECIAL RULE: Due to the hesitancy of Lantinghausen to advance from the town the Swedish forces may not advance beyond the 84xx row which runs North and South along the map. Hex 84,24 is an example of the limit of their advance. Only eight companies of infantry and two squadrons of cavalry may move beyond the stream east of Lotalaks.
