Scenario Briefing: Action at Dessau Bridge - After plundering the Altmark, Mansfeld was determined to secure the bridge at Dessau, the key crossing point between Magdeburg and Saxony. However, anticipating this move, Wallenstein had secured and fortified both banks with a force of 4 infantry companies under Colonel Aldringer. On 12th April, Mansfeld arrived at the bridge at Dessau and attempted to capture it. This short scenario covers that minor action.
