1809 ESR Starter Box Set
With Napoleon’s army engaged in Spain and Portugal, English bankers convinced the Emperor of Austria to attack Napoleon in Germany. Archduke Charles led the partially reformed Austrian Army, nearly destroyed by Napoleon in 1805, on a resurgent invasion of Bavaria. Meanwhile, Napoleon rushed the bulk of his Army from the Iberian Peninsular back into the heart of Europe to repel the invaders. Until he arrived, French Forces in Bavaria would have to fend for themselves.
