178. Second Biberach: Kray's Counterattack - WDS Republican Bayonets on the Rhine

9 May 1800 - Variant - Intended to be played Head to Head - This variant explores the possibility that Kray could have reinforced his forces fighting to hold Biberach. The Austrian 3rd and 4th Kolonnes start the battle fixed but will release during the first two hours of the battle. IMPORTANT MAP NOTE: There are special fords on the map. Each has a map tag. They cross the Riss River north and south of Biberach. They use the "Rail" terrain and the players will have to check the "Terrain Info" for the hex to see which hexside of the Riss River the ford crosses. Only infantry in column or skirmishers may use these fords. There is no terrain graphic for "Rail" terrain. Each tag has a compass aid to help the players to know which hexsides are fords. Thus a "NW-SE" ford means that the "Rail" terrain crosses the river from the northwest to the southeast. To show the map tags press the Space Bar.
