Schwabian Commanders

Having lost all his command, can sanity be far behind
When asked about his command he replied,"Sir, I have no command"
The Harzburg comanders await the outcome of their volley
The Muhlehause Foot check their moral after reicieving anouther devastating volley
Will they also fail and join their comrads and flee
Joyful Harzburgers celebrate their victory as the last Schwabian infantry flees from the hill
The remnants of 3 battalions would not equal 1 fresh battalion
The foot suffered close to 70% losses
It's safe to bring the Herzog's prized 12's across the ford and resume the march
It was an enjoyable game (says one who was on the victorious side). The Schwabians were no match for the combination of Harburg grenadiers and 12-lbrs firing canister at close range. The y melted away like snow before the hot sun!
