Board wargame "Corunna 1809: Moore vs. Soult" depicts the last battle of 1808's campaign, when General Moore rushed on Sahagun, threatening flank of the dispersed French forces. The campaign ended with pittful retreat to Corunna and with embarkation of decimated British army on Royal Navy ships. If Marshal Jean de Dieu Soult defeated General Moore on Corunna fields, British loses would have been catastrophic. Perhaps would not have been future successes of sir Arthur Wellesley in coming years, because British government would have withdrawal from Iberian Peninsula.

Tha game "Corunna 1809: Moore vs. Soult" uses similar rules as "Albuera 1811: Beresford vs. Soult". French army has advantages in artillery and cavalry, but it is not easy to explore them. Guns must be set on good positions and cavalry maneuvers in difficult terrain. The French player can dismount his dragoon regiments and he can act them as infantry in skirmish order.
The British player has in his disposal good infantry, which performs very well during fire combat. His goal is stay on the battlefield long enough to gain additional victory points. Of course the French player must prevent it, but bad prepared, to early conducted attack can last the whole effort.

Will it be the last battle of General Moore? Will Napoleonic eagels suffer humiliating defeat? The finale outcome depends on your decisions!
