1809 French vs. Austrian Game

This is the first game of 2011, and the first game in a couple of months due to holiday and family obligations.  It was the first time out of the chute for my "complete" (is there such a thing?) Austrian Napoleonic army.  The terrain also featured several new terrain pieces - tree and rock terrain pieces, roads, and rivers.   It made for a good looking game.  As I've done before - the game report will be done through photos.

Overview of the table at the start of the game.  The French plan was to sweep across the bottom of the photo and crush the Austrian right and then their central hill position, while essentially using the Bavarians as a pinning force vs. the Austrian left flank.
