Wilhelm von Preußen

Here's a winter battle from the 1796 scenario between Austria and France. My graphics guy will be mad at me because the Austrians are still wearing Prussian uniforms (I switched the file numbers by accident and haven't fixed it yet and he's been nagging me to do it for a while).
The French flag with the artillery unit shows the presence of a commander. The Austrian division on the road is disordered and out of supply. There's a French guard south of the caisson and the artillery, and a French light infantry at the east side of the map.

Here's the same view but with the very popular chits instead of the 3d icons.

Here's a snap of the strategic map. It's updated from the snaps on our website -- has the 3D icons in place.
There's an Austrian commander and supply depot in Veneto, and an Austrian diplomat in Tyrolia. The striped areas are under Austrian protectorate. You can see the strategic fog of war on the west side.
One thing unfinished on the strategic map is city placement -- we need to sit down and put all the cities in (roughly) the proper locations.

Here's a snapshot showing the forts (at night, in the rain).
My Austrians were up on the height overlooking the southern fort and managed to blast a breach in the walls. Mack's division worked their way inside when the northern garrison was disordered, but then became disordered in a fight with the western French garrison. You can't see it on the snapshot but there are a few French divisions in line formation just west of the fort obscured by the fog-of-war. (These are in addition to the two I'm trying to distract on the far west side.) I've got reinforcements coming down the road on the east, but the odds are against my holding out until they arrive.

Here's another Austria vs France battle, this time in 1805. (I finally fixed the Austrian uniforms.) I'm the Austrians; AI is playing the French. They drove me out of the fortress at the start of the battle. I've got the two garrisons remaining in the fortress, but they are disordered and very depleted. Units in the fortress are considered to have access to the big guns and can attack as heavy artillery, so the French infantry division in column at the northern part of the fortress has just started blowing away Archduke Charles' division in the woods beside it.
It set up in line formation on the ridge at the east at the beginning of the battle but my units there are too far out of range to do much good. The two French artillery in the middle have been doing a lot of damage, and I see they have a third artillery coming up from the rear. The French have reinforcements on the way and I do not, so I better hurry up.

Here's the same battle five hours later. (I had to include this one just to show off our fine smoke effects.)
French reinforcements are here. Notice the heavy cavalry (black horse) facing my artillery and the French guard helping to flank my milita at the top of the map. I'm moving around to flank his line at the south but France has several cavalry down there holding me back. He's also got two cavalry that just rallied north of the river that are headed my way.
I ended up winning the battle, but just barely. I managed to drive off the cavalry and complete the flank at the south just before their guard and cavalry moved in position to flank my line at the north. (I was able to split the Austrian infantry division at the north and hold the horses on the other side of the river for an hour before the guard finally knocked me back and let the cavalry through, but by then my infantry in the south had rolled back their line.)
