    No! I was Sweden.

    We actually won this battle in the end though the AI put up a hell of a fight. It was one of those rare battles where the AI just came straight on and duked it out musket to musket instead of fiddling about trying to outflank me or suicide on the artillery.

    Many of my first line battalions actually fired off all their ammunition and had to be relieved by battalions from the reserve. As soon as the AI detected a drop in firepower they tended to come in with the bayonet so the relief battalion had to be brought forward and paasage of lines timed to ensure that the firing was kept constant.

    I lost about a third of my army and my General 'Stenburger' was killed by a stray cannon ball towards the end of the fight. The Russians even managed to rally and make a second attack towards the end of the battle but fortunately I had a cavalry regiment in reserve so the next time they broke I made sure they kept running. They even tried forming square at one point as my cavalry moved forward but fortunately it was within range of my artillery and so got blasted by cannister.
