26 October 1806 (What-if) A short action during the pursuit of the Prussian army near Sandau between the rearguard of Rüchel's Corps under Oberst von Yorck and Soult's advance guard including Sahut's 4th Dragoon division. Historically, Yorck was able to hold off the French until the evening and then after setting campfires he retreated to Sandau after he had destroyed his boats. Yorck placed his command in a secure position with his left resting on the Elbe river. Attacked first by cavalry and then by infantry Yorck held his position until night. Leaving his camp fires burning he withdrew to Sandau and burned the boats he used to cross the river. Intended for head to head play.

too much night fighting
Too many night moves
Early moves are key for the Prussians. When the night comes, the die is already cast.
