The French Dragoons unleash an audacious surprise move, letting them charge into the British Heavy Cavalry, who had paused at the river to take stock. #JoyOfSix

A savage melee takes place, with both sides suffering. The weight of the French charge is just enough to force the British back across the stream - but they go against type and successfully rally themselves in the following turn. #JoyOfSix

The British light cavalry brigade manoeuvres on the left flank, but the brigade are the crossroads falters at the critical time, leaving the brigade at the stream to face down the French attack columns alone! #JoyOfSix

In the centre, the French columns surge across the stream - routing and over extended British battalion. Even worse, the brigade falters next turn so they can't rally! #JoyOfSix

The British light cavalry advance, as the light brigade form squares to defend against the french cavalry threat. #JoyOfSix

On the British right, the Guards suffer heavy losses defending the farm, but remain unbowed. The Highlanders on their right pour fire into the French flank guard, before the supporting line battalions charge through!
