Played this twice, with a 7-4 victory to the French and a 7-5 victory to the Spanish. In both games, the forward Spanish artillery unit evaporated very quickly and the Polish Guard cavalry wreaked havoc with the Spanish infantry. In the French victory, both sides seemed to have cards predominantly on the French left/Spanish right, as the Spanish line infantry advanced on this side and were annihilated. In the other game, most cards were on the opposite flank, with the French light units advancing and being destroyed by the Spanish line infantry. It's an exciting scenario, and not quite as one-sided as the stats suggest, provided the Spanish play cautiously and use the guerrilla counters judiciously.

J's Spanish lead most of the round with light cavalry nearly encircling several vulnerable units. French snatch victory at last minute, 7-6.
