Maida 4 July 1806 - A French army invaded the Kingdom of Naples in early 1806, forcing the Neapolitan government to flee to Sicily. However, the local inhabitants rose in revolt and a British expeditionary force under Stuart was sent to exploit the unrest and deter the French from an attempted invasion of Sicily. The two armies that met on the plain of Maida were small, although the French had cavalry and a slight numerical superiority.

Small, no much space for manouvering. Good for learning to defend with British.

It is a tiny independent scenario with about a division in each side battled over a quite simple terrain in an almost forgotten war scenario, perfect as an introductory scenario.
I enjoyed historical details like having Swissmen on both sides.
Nevertheless, the best was my opponent, Virietor, from whom I learned a lot, no only from his maneuvers but also from his always rich comments.

Fun, quick scenario that I thought was fairly well-balanced.
