Description

Monday 7th September 1812, the French Grande Armée has chased the Russian army back towards Moscow, they have stopped with their right flank defended by the River Kolocha, just outside the little unknown village of Borodino. Great redoubts and fleches have been constructed for defense, allowing artillery emplacement to fire across a wide open field.

Napoleon Bonaparte has lost vast amounts of troops to attrition and minor battles, but his main army remains still intact. This is going to be the bloodiest day in Napoleonic history.

The board game includes an optional rear guard action fought on the 5th and a continuance night time phase that links the two day battle together.
