Probably the most grimdark, 'out-there', '40K-ish' Warhammer 40,000 armies faced off against each other. 1,000 points on a 4' x 4' table.
This was more enjoyable and manageable than the 2,000 point slogging matches of old.
More importantly, they look cool and were fun to paint!
In this interesting scenario, the French had to assault the Austrians, who were lying in wait on the far side of a hill. The French managed to carry the day by aggressively thrusting at the Austrian artillery line. Their momentum took them into the Austrian columns, which mostly broke on contact.
