5 September 1813 - Historical - Intended to be played Head to Head - Important: Uses 15 Minute Turns - Ney was ordered to take up the march on Berlin following Oudinot's failed attempt. After his review of the army on the 4th, the army was set in motion to the north. XII Corps under Oudinot would march on the town of Zahna where a brigade of Prussians was stationed in and around the village. The French marched up and unlimbered their artillery and brought the Prussians under a withering fire. The Prussians retreated to the north and continued falling back rather than put up a determined defense. The Allied player is given the same situation and can decide whether his forces can match up to the French. Favors the French player.
