for those, who want know more about the battle or want use the maps
to setup a "Epic" Heilsberg or a pure "Cavalry battlemap", which was fought on French left

And i wished also, Scenario Publisher declare clear the river parts, if
river spread up into different sections.

Horrible battle for me! Balanced or not: When the cards AND dice don't want you to win ... You won't win and you will know we are far away from chess LOL!

Is the town hex of Launau a Victory Banner for the Rusians? The text says "all towns" and not just those on the Russian side.

you are right, it´s also a victory hex for russians,
and as i wrote above, i wished, Scenario Publisher declare clear the river parts, if river spread up into different sections (because in Heilsberg its also not clear, which river part on French left is the impassable Allee or fordable Bevernick) and all victory hexes.

Best they use a Scenario Editor like this vassal module, with a lot of different color borders and other markers, to show all clear!

I always update in future this unclear hexes and victory conditions, after
the scenarios will clarified.

We got another answer of Richard Borg, because of the scenario.

• The impassable River Alle includes the fork tile and the part south of the fork.


Again all dear scenario designers/publishers. Declare and show all important tiles, victory hexes and other important things clear (with colored borders round the hexes e.g.), so such questions don´t come up

Alessandro will replace next the current scenario picture with a new one.

Is the Russian victory flag for occupying a town a turn start flag OR as gained as soon as a Russian unit enters a town?

Missread first
The VP is gained immediately, because it´s the first
VP option in russian rulebook
"Temporary Victory Banner Objective Hex"

Had a strange game of this scenario last week. The Russians won 8-0!! French didn't get any Tactitian cards and their other command cards were almost all Scout and Probe stuff. French also had lousy dice. French attack on the Russian left was repulsed with great loss in blocks by French. Russian cavalry swept in on the French left and cleaned up the single block units then ended the game with pressing in on the center and a Bayonet Charge from the Russian infantry. I played the Russians and didn't even realize that the French had no banners until I reached my 8 for victory. It didn't feel that overwhelming, but the combination of really bad cards and really bad dice did the French in.
