Danube Campaign: Turn 5

10/1/2015

 
Five wet, muddy days into the Danube campaign, the emperor and the archduke have waged a war of maneuver instead of muskets. Not a single pitched battle has taken place but many miles of marching have drawn the armies within engagement range. Will Napoleon or Charles finally strike?  (Teaser: YES)

APRIL 19th, Turn 5

WEATHER REPORT: Clear skies

JOURNAL: With the armies closing to engagement range, cavalry activity steps up for both sides. French reconnaissance learns that the Austrians have left a skeleton force to cover Ratisbon while taking three full corps down the Eggmuhl road toward Landshut. Clearly, they are aiming to concentrate with the southern half of the Austrian host. But not so fast! Napoleon's Bavarian corps has spent the last five days lingering near Eggmuhl to act as a blocking force for this circumstance. Suddenly, in the late afternoon of April 19, the French descend on Eggmuhl, hoping to catch Charles on the road. Tomorrow will be the day!
