Austerlitz: Napoleon's Greatest Victory

 

When he saw the magnificent sunrise burning through the mist on the morning of the Battle of Austerlitz, Napoleon thought he could see his destiny. The combined Russian and Austrian armies were following the French emperor's script to the letter. The Allies believed they were superior in the numbers and that Napoleon, who had fallen back from the best defensive position in the area, the Pratzen Heights, was afraid of a confrontation.

The Allied high command was wrong.

So began the Battle of Austerlitz, considered by many historians to be Napoleon’s greatest victory.

Based on the "Sid Meier's Gettysburg"  and its "Waterloo: Napoleon's Last Battle" sequel. Austerlitz is the second installment in Breakaway Games Greatest Battles Series.
