La Bataille de Jena 1806: D'histoire alternative ©

This is a large, multi-player “what-if” scenario. The presumption is that both the Prussian army and the French army have concentrated, rather than the historic maneuver that created two separate battles. In this scenario, each side is provided with some set-up options. The French are given more flexibility, but they also are not exactly sure of the victory conditions. The Prussians may stand and fight to the end, or decide to save some units and retreat in the late afternoon. Either way, the French will have to be very aggressive. Just sitting and waiting for Davout could let the Prussians slip away.

 Start 8:00 and finish at the end of the 17:00 turn  The French set-up first and then the Prussians  The French move first  Boundary – All four Jena maps  Movement suggestions – with 4 players: 10 minutes for the French and 8 minutes for the Coalition  No units may start or enter in Road March .  French Units rout in the direction of Jena. French units that rout off the board, wait one turn before rolling to recover morale, if successful they re-enter the next turn. If unsuccessful they may roll every turn until recovery.  Prussian Units rout in the direction of Weimar or Apolda. Prussian units that rout off the board are eliminated  Reduced maps are provided as pdf’s that show the set-ups for both sides.

Fog

Between the beginning of the 8:00 turn and the end of the 9:20 turn, the battle field is covered in a morning fog. During this time frame:

 Artillery is limited to medium or short range only  Infantry may form Carre in their movement phase, only.  Infantry movement is reduced by 2 movement points  Artillery movement is reduced by 2 movement points

 Cavalry and horse artillery movement is reduced by 5 movement points  Cavalry may not Charge, Reaction Charge, or Opportunity Charge  All fire attacks are modified to reflect 2/3 of their normal value  Units may always move one hex if restriction of terrain and fog would not allow them to do so.
