La Bataille de Friedland et Danzig 1809

La Bataille de Friedland 1807

Duration, Maps and Set-up and options are the same as in Scenario One.  3 Cossaque regiments east of the Alle Fluß. If the Cossaques are within 5 hexes of the south edge of map 3c, the Russians will receive a one hour notice of the arrival of Marchand’s division. They may also look for river fords at the same time Communications No Russian division or brigade may move more than 3 hexes east of their starting position until Essen I has spent a complete turn with each of these three commanders; and Bennigsen’s orders, issued in German, are clear to each Russian Commanders. After Essen I spends a complete turn with the commander (right, center or left), Roll one die: 1 or 2… orders understood, the retreat can begin 3 or 4… orders partially understood, retreat 2 divisions and roll again next turn 5… orders not understood, no retreat this turn 6 … Russian commander refuses to accept orders and a duel is fought using the leader casualty table. If Essen is killed, Bennigsen must send another aide and repeat the process. If the Russian wing leader is killed or wounded, the retreat begins. If no result from the casualty table, roll again next turn. Imperial French Reinforcement Option The French may elect to have Marchand with the 1ere Division force march around the Russian Left. Rather than entering at 12:20 pm, the 1ere Division would enter on the road to Sortlack on the southern edge of map 3c. The entry times would be variable, based on rolling one dice, once this maneuver was decided:

1… enter at 2: 2o pm 2… enter at 2:40 pm 3… appear at 3:40 pm 4… enter at 4:20 pm 5 … enter at 4:40 pm 6… enter at 5:00 pm

Based on the roll, the French player may elect to accelerate the arrival of the 1ere Division by one hour. However, each regiment entering must check morale and roll under their morale number. If the roll results in a failure of morale, the regiment would exit the board at the hex it entered. In an hour the French player could roll for that regiment again. The roll result is not revealed to the Russians – see Cossaque starting positions for exception
