Scenario Briefing: Historical - The Austrian detached corps of Lobkowitz was engaged in besieging the minor fortress of Frauenberg, in order to distract French attention while the main Austrian army engaged the Prussians in the Chotusitz campaign.

This worked all too well, and drew the attention of a sizeable French force under Broglie. Having been maneuvered out of his camp at Sahay, Lobkowitz attempted a series of poorly-coordinated attacks against the French as they came up, but was ultimately obliged to fall back and allow the French to relieve Frauenberg.

The Austrians MUST stay up atop the hill, and anchor their defenses on the forests and abandon the objectives in Sahay. They're there to tempt you, don't take the bait.
