Date: 19 July 1744 - Size: Small - Location: Casteldelfino, Piedmont
Scenario Briefing: Historical - As part of Conti's multi-pronged Franco-Spanish offensive against Piedmont, the ninth column of his army, under the command of the Bailli de Givri, was tasked with clearing the redoubts overlooking the Varaita valley. A fierce fight in heavy fog ensued, in which de Givri was mortally wounded, before the Piedmontese were driven from the redoubts.
Note: This battle was fought on steep hills, so the penalty for firing uphill is increased. It is likewise more expensive to move uphill.
Recommended Rules: [Default]
Intended to be played as the Anti-Pragmatic forces against the Pragmatic Alliance AI, but can be played from either side or Head-to-Head.
