26 May 1800 - Historical - Intended to be played Head to Head - Bonaparte's army has ascended out of the Great St. Bernard Pass and after a brief action has taken Ivrea. Now they seek to engage the Austrian forces to the south. This was the first real encounter between the two armies in the 1800 campaign. After the French had won the action Lannes was told to stay in place and keep Melas thinking that the French were heading for Turin. His plan succeeded and Bonaparte's army headed to Milan and were able to turn the long Austrian flank on the Po River.
