Carnage and Glory 1st Coalition Clash

I'm catching up on my battle reports over the summer. 


A view from a Dutch redout faccing the French advance. 
over to the left the Fench are hurrying forward with cavalry ahead of the infantry. 
I sned my small cavalry unity moves on to the flank of the coming cavalry clash.
Joining in... as Allied and French cavalry clash in the center  
Invantery attack on the right though the corn. 
The resultes of the cavalry clashe are mixed with the French winning one fight but losing two others.. leading to French cavalry behind the Allied line (but the unit is rather exauhsted)  
Allied Cavalry takes French infantry in the Flank
Helping stablize the Austrina infantry line. 
French intantry are pileing in as are allied cavalry heavy boddy blows ahve been exhanged but its anyones game as I have to leave... it was an eventual French vistory if I recall. 
 

La Ferme aux Rennes action at Neckar

 Another eddition of Arofan's late 17th/early 18th centeruy game. 

The Germans move in on the French camp catching it by suprise as the fog lifts... 

The works are facing the wrong way. 
French troops move out on their left... 
an exchange fire occurs... followed charged of french cavalry and infantry... 
followed charged of french cavalry and infantry... 
That goes badly for the German Allies... The French suffer too, a cavalry unit routs, and several french infantry units are hammers including the Swiss who break but then recover. 
on French right and center the battle is in the ballance but on the left the French have the advantage and the allied German force must with draw.
