On the night of the 29th of October the French army formed up north-east of the map depicted here to face the allies arrayed outside of Hanau. What resulted was a defeat of the over confident allies and a successful retreat of the French army back to France to allow for a rebuilding for the 1814 campaign.
This scenario shows two sizes of map. The one in the inner box is the full scale map, the other the condensed (2/3) scale map. The table size is 8' x 5'.
