For this one we concluded that to win Massena needed to throw everything that he had at Wellesley's position—and to have some luck. I don't think that it would have have been possible to wear the army down as much as we did, to both sides, in this game. Of course the divisional morale rules prevent you 'dying to a man', but if you get lucky you can run to 3/4 losses!James Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897755636246185173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8493556920707083758.post-44279136399712678002013-08-23T00:40:04.403+08:002013-08-23T00:40:04.403+08:00Thanks Ian.
