The Austrians have to defend three objectives. The mud and overcast conditions of a view of 6 hexes give the French an advantage and limit the Austrian's artillery. The last 5 turns are night turns with only 1 visibility. Austrian counter attack at the end routed numerous of my heavily fatigued French. Conditions and terrain limited cavalry.
The weather is a major issue in this scenario: infantry fire is useless, artillery and melées being the only means to hit the enemy.
