10 Oct 1806 - 15 Minute Turns - (Historical) The first main action of the 1806 campaign may have occurred at Schleiz on the 9th but the real first true action of arms that was to be a definte example of things to come occurred at Saalfeld. The wing of Lannes was debouching from the Thuringian forest when they came upon Louis Ferdinand and his Advance Guard near Saalfeld. The action commenced at about 10:30am when the piquettes of the 17th Legere emerged from the woods and skirmished with the Prussian left. Meanwhile, more troops were arriving and the brigades of Sibille and Simonnet supported by three light cavalry regiments soon engaged the Prussians. This scenario depicts the battle from the very beginning when the 17th Legere emerged from the woods. Intended for head to head play.
