14 June 1800 - Tutorial - Based on the Historical Action - Intended to be played Solo as French vs. AIlies (AI) - This is the Tutorial scenario for Campaign Marengo. Open up the "Getting_Started.pdf" file in the Campaign Marengo folder and follow the instructions. The Tutorial shows the players the main fuctions of the graphical user interface (GUI) menus and toolbar and how to perform movement, fire and melee combat as well as leadership skills. This action is based on Desaix and Kellerman's attack against the advancing Austrian army during the final stage of the Battle of Marengo. NOTE: I chose to use the Dragoon brigade instead of the Heavy Cavalry brigade so that the players could check out dismounting cavalry. For a more historical recreation of this action see 110. Marengo: Napoleon's Counterattack (Head to Head) or 111. Marengo: Napoleon's Counterattack (Solo).
