Austrians opened with a cavalry charge on their right flank that almost wiped out the French left. Lannes countered attacking in the centre with scarce success, then redeployed on his left but without his cavalry units he was simply outnumbered by Rosenberg forces

After a few ranged skirmishes in the centre, this time Austrians moved forward on their left but the French, adopting a defensive stance, repulsed Rosenberg first attack. The Habsburg General then smartly manoeuvred massing a huge force in his centre that managed to pull off Lannes forces from their granary stronghold.
Again, a battle was resolved by mere block differentials. C&C system at its best. Thanks to all my great opponents of this tournament.
