14 October 1806 (What-if) A thick fog lay over the countryside as Gudin's division marched up into the Hassenhausen defile. A squadron of French cavalry had blundered into the Prussians and gave the alarm. Gudin deployed his division and the Battle of Auerstedt was underway. Davout would personally direct the deployments of the troops and push in new formations as they arrived. First, Friant and the Morand arrived to stem the tide of Prussians. The Prussians committed their formations with no coordination the result being that a smaller force decisively beat over twice its size. Can you as Davout repeat history, hold your ground and then advance to press the Prussians back or will you watch as your beloved corps gets beaten and driven back on Kosen? This scenario features Bernadotte's I Corps arriving in brigade sized formations by 11am along with three divisions of cavalry. Intended for head to head play.
