The church bells ring in Moscow

When in Alaska I decided I was not getting to Jim's place enough.  So headed down for some 'Hail Whomever' action.

A fictitious scenario.  Napoleonics -- French vs Russian.  French (Jim, Mark, Chris) had 3 small divisions of infantry and a division of guard cavalry.  Russians (me, Mike, Steve), had 3 large infantry divisions and some crap cavalry.

In the end, the crap Russian cavalry died to the French Guard cavalry, but they went down fighting.  One Russian division died fighting a French division in an orchard, but mauled the French.  My division sat in the middle and did nothing.  And Steve's division managed to create an angle and maul a French division for no loss.

End result -- The French destroyed 2 Russian divisions for the loss of 1.  But the Russians held the field.  So both sides claim victory.
