The match among Bob Breen/Marco Bijl V Jean-Denis Martin/Jonathan Thayer has concluded with a French Surrender!
Although the scoreboard said Draw after turn 17, the victory hexes at Theugn arethreatened on three sides, with much of the French force no longer able to maneveur, and 7,000 fresh Austrian troops from the 4th Corps at the city gates.
Although the troops around Saalhaupt are fresh, the French can not move to support the engagment at Theugn without jeopardizing that sector and they would have to fight their way to Theugn, since the road had been cut.
On this day, the field and victory belong to the Allies.

We are playing a slighly modified version of the 32 turn Eckmuhl 15H scenario - Battle of Teugn Hausen and Saalhaupt. We are also using a slightly modifed version of the MOE 3 Houserules.
The Austrians have completed their first turn after formulating a brillant strategy -- primarily the work of Commander Bijl. The only obstacle now is the French!
