The battle was a mass charge by the Russian and Austrian Armies on our right. We then countered with a charge of our own that almost destroyed the Russians entirely. We were able to get the uperhand after the counter charge and were able to push the enemy army until they were wiped out. :smile:

The battle was very confusing with all the troops massed in charge and counter charge our Army was just able to counter at the right moments to cause mass routing as our commander yelled out constant orders and guidance :charge:

It was an epic battle. I think its a mistake to try and take the charge all the way home sometimes.

The Russians were very tired/exhausted. They should have withdrawn to regroup in line. Unfortunately, we tried to continue the push against fresh Polish. In addition, I made the mistake of commiting some fresh Prussian line into the melee without cav support. They were quickly overwhelmed by Frenchies eager to avenge their earlier losses.

A general must keep his eye on his troops fatigue. Withdrawing is a better option than mass rout.
