Scenario Briefing: Historical - Frederick had been taken by surprise when an Austrian Army under Charles of Lorraine moved against him (instead of continuing operations against the French near Prague.) Charles had managed to get himself into a position where he was between Frederick and Leopold of Anhalt-Dessau's two wings.

While Frederick raced to join Leopold, the Austrians attacked near Chotusitz. Once again, the discipline of the Prussian infantry would carry the day, though only after a bloody battle.

Recommended Rules: [Default]
