A brand new army graced the table – The Saxons – in this Napoleonics encounter. The Saxons, supported by some French heavy cavalry, went toe-to-toe with a joint Austrian/Prussian force.

The respective centres never really grappled with each other the properly before the end of the game, although the Austrian Grenadiers did make contact with some Saxon Guard. On the wings, the Austrian and Prussians had the better of the evening, although the action was gentlemanly deemed 'inconclusive'.

Great to see one of the more over-looked armies of the period make an appearance, with interesting uniforms, standards and command vignettes.

Excellent painting and basing, but I was hoping for Saxons in bicornes. Oh, well.
