La Bataille des Corunna - Espanol
January 16th, 1809; Moore vs. Soult

Corunna pits Sir John Moore, Father of the British Infantry, against a determined Marshal Soult, the Duke of Dalmatia. Landing a small British expeditionary force to assist the Spanish rebels against the French has backfired. Napoleon has launched a massive invasion of Spain sending Soult to trap the British.

Forced to abandon his baggage, horses, and wounded in a desperate attempt to reach the coast at Corunna, Sir John finds only a harbor empty of ships. Now he must buy time, for not only the corps of Marshal Soult approaches, which in itself would be an equal contest of arms, but marching just behind him is the corps of Marshal Ney. Which will arrive first, the "Duke of Damnation', as Soult became known to the British troops, or the fleet?

Will Sir John complete his strategic withdrawal? Will the French shatter the English forces, ending the "Spanish Ulcer" before it is known as such? Can you, as Soult, make the English dance to your tune and put paid to their Iberian position, or will Sir John have the piper's fee? Glory awaits the victor, prison hulks the loser in La Bataille des Corunna-Espagnol!
