The Battle of Kay-Palzig - In 1759, the Austrians and Russians had agreed to joint operations along the Oder river. The main Russian Army under Saltykov was initially opposed by a much smaller force under Wedel. Despite his numerical disadvantage, Wedel decided to attack the Russians in a strong position at Palzig. At the end of the day, Wedel was driven off with heavy losses. This scenario begins with Wedel's columns reaching Kay at 3:00, to give the Prussians the chance to choose how to assault the Russian position.
