In this approximate refight of the Prussian Guard Corp attack on the far right of the French line at the battle of Gravelotte-St. Privat, the French managed to just about hold on for the allocated 8 game turns to secure a victory. That said, the Prussians had penetrated the French line in a number of places and would probably have taken the objective if given another couple of turns.
The casualties inflicted on the Guards by accurate Chassepot fire was horrendous, amounting to approximately half of the infantry bases being destroyed. This mirrors the ruinous one third casualties suffered by the Guard Corp in the actual battle.
