Date: 8 February 1743 - Size: Medium - Location: Campo Santo, Italy
Scenario Briefing: Alternate - In Spring 1743, both Madrid and Vienna were pressing their commanders for action in the Italian theater, after months of desultory maneuver. Finally, Count Gages decided to cross the Panaro at Campo Santo. Count Traun gathered his forces to attack the Spanish at the crossing, shifting his line to the left to focus on the Spanish right. While the Spanish were able to gain early advantages on both wings, the indiscipline of the Spanish cavalry allowed the Austro-Piedmontese forces to rally. Eventually, the Spanish retreated back across the river at nightfall, with both sides taking heavy losses.
This version of the scenario has the Pragmatic forces shifted heavily to their left while the Anti-Pragmatic deployment remains unchanged. This is a shorter scenario, beginning at 4:00 PM. All forces are released at the beginning of the scenario.
Recommended Rules: [Default]
Intended to be played as the Pragmatic Alliance against the Anti-Pragmatic AI, but can be played from either side or Head-to-Head.
