Played this one today with Ken, Danny, and Kinley. Kinley and I were the French, Danny was the Russians, and Ken was the Prussians. I did not know anything in particular of the battle other than it was part of Leipzig.

| The setup. My French are in the lower right corner, Kinley's on the left, the Russians top right and the Prussians top left. The Prussians and Russians get points for moving units off the lower edge of the table and capturing the towns - one in the center, and other near the river, and the big one off to the left about the bottom left of the picture. |
 |
| End of the game is a resounding victory for French arms! The Prussians had just taken the town in the center when the French play an Elan! card and manage to activate almost every possible unit on the left flank. The town was retaken and a Prussian unit or two eliminated while the cavalry (up top with the die next to it) goes on a rampage and eliminates a couple more units. This puts the French well over the Victory Point cap to win the game. |
