1300 to 1400
4 April 1813
Table at the start of Move 6
Prussians Move First
Orders – Engage
Command Points – 6
Bulow orders the first brigade to occupy the right hand section of Salzwedel
He also sends a second brigade to occupy the left hand section.
French Move Second
Orders – Engage
Command Points – 5
Poniatowski orders his artillery to fire on the enemy square.
The gunners score a hit, and the Prussians have to test their morale
The Prussians fail and are Shaken.
Poniatowski must prevent the enemy from taking possession of Salzwedel
He orders his lancer brigade to move forward towards the town
He then brings up the remainder of the corps, ready to dispute the town.
Rule Note
The Prussian infantry thought that they were out of range of the enemy artillery.
In fact they were just in range.
The Polish gunners rolled 2x6 and scored a hit.
The Prussian infantry then had to test morale
They failed and are Shaken
They will have to test morale again next turn
If they fail again they will rout and probably take the landwehr with them
This could easily lose the battle for the Prussians
Rule 7 covers artillery fire
