124 Ocana 19 November 1809 - WDS Bonaparte's Peninsular War

Ocana 19 November 1809 - After driving a small force of French (Milhaud's 5 regiments of dragoons and Sebastiani's Polish infantry) out of Ocana on the 11 November, the Spanish army failed to prevent the French from concentrating their forces and, after failing to cross the Tagus, fell back to Ocana and rested while the French army advanced towards the town. While the cavalry were approximately equal in strength, if not in quality, the Spanish had more infantry, but would numbers be sufficient to off-set the superior quality of the French troops? NB: Historically the Spanish were caught by surprise by the French cavalry attack on their right flank, but this scenario gives them time to redeploy to avoid this threat. To reflect the devastating effect the French cavalry had on the Spanish flank, the protection radius has been extended to 9 hexes from the standard 5 hexes.
