"Kleinmerkelsburg in the background - the right flank of the prussians"

"The westphalian infantry brigade in attack columns and the french-westphalian right wing with mass of cavalry"

"French cuirassiers"

"The attack starts with the westphalian cannonade"

"Now - time for attack: The prussian cavalry attacks at first the french cavalry that answers with a glory countercharge."

"The prussian cavalry outflanked the french and throw it partially back to his start positions."

"The westphalian infantry storms the ruined church in the centre".

" ... and the breaktrough at the prussian centre positions, hold by silesian Landwehr."

"The prussian retreat to Kleinmerkelsburg".

After sunset, the french-westphalian troops consolidate his positions and make his guns ready for the final attack on the village on next day ...

Dang! That's quite impressive, and a big temptation to rethink my disfavour of the shako's age...
