Houtain le Val

Engage in historical conflicts or embark on your own nation vs. nation campaign.

The battle maps in the Road to Quatre Bras series are designed to showcase the significant locations that played a crucial role during the French military's advance and defensive strategies. These maps also served as outposts for the allies, contributing to their efforts during the 100 days campaign and eventually leading up to the iconic battle of Quatre Bras in June 1815. Whether you choose to experience the historical perspective of the allies or embody the French forces, these battle maps provide an unparalleled gaming experience. Furthermore, they offer ample opportunities for players to create their own unique campaigns and engage in thrilling nation-versus-nation gameplay.

Houtain le Val is a small town located just a few miles away from the historic battlefield of Quatre bras. The map accurately depicts the boundaries of the Bossu woods to the east, and on the west side, there are beautiful farmlands with charming little farms surrounding the village of Houtain le Val, leading all the way to the road to Quatre Bras. This battle map is specifically designed for intense field battles, even in a two-versus-two, nation-versus-nation gameplay. The strategic points on this map are highlighted by green icons, providing troops with crucial positions to defend against artillery fire or seek shelter. Additionally, there are elevated areas where artillery icons grant players an extended firing range. The battle map of Houtain le Val presents a great challenge for players who wish to test their commanding skills by leading massive armies in preparation for the epic battle of Quatre Bras.
