Thanks for the report! But there is one point on which I would differ with you. By the time of the Battle of Loigny the French generals were a LOT better, and it was the troops that were of poor quality. You could make a pretty solid argument that IF the Imperial Army would have generals like Chanzy, Faidherbe, and others like them things may have gone quite differently than they did. Nevertheless it was a good read.

Thanks very much peris0707! 😎 The général quality is from the Polemos rules scenario… We are not enough good on this point to know if this is correct or not. We willingly believe you and to restore a little "equality" between the two camps … We could next time upgrade French generals: Chanzy, Martin des Pallières, Jaureguiberry and de Sonis! Thanks for informations!
