Scenario Briefing: The Battle of Poniec (What-if)

Upon learning of the Polish recapture of Warsaw, King Charles XII decided to move towards the capital, and hunt down the Polish King Augustus II, as well as the Saxon army under General Schulenburg that accompanied him. Upon learning of this, the Polish king ordered a retreat towards Cracow. On the afternoon of November 7th (or October 28th according to the Swedish calendar) King Charles XII caught up with the retreating Saxons on the outskirts of the town of Poniec.

In this version of the battle, the Swedish rearguard has already reached Poniec, and is ready to join in the fight.
