When the first French assault was thrown back there were a lot of long faces on the French side.<br /><br />The French command advantage was decisive though, as we could focus much more on critical point of the battlefield and overcome the disdvanatge of attacking up hill (again) into fieldworks.<br /><br />The Russians ability to ignore retreat results worked against then to a degree as their battered units hung on and were then easy pickings. They might have been better retreating to the main position, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.<br />Martin Rapierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788664847205341619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152572458899289416.post-50467699674386684002013-10-11T10:21:57.840+01:002013-10-11T10:21:57.840+01:00tradgardmastare
