Austria suffered a major defeat at the hands of Napoleon in 1805.
This led to the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1809 Austria
sought revenge for this insult. Austrian armies marched on Bavaria in an
attempt to defeat Napoleon's Forces while they were seperated. The French
and their allies proved they were up to the challenge and sent the Austrians
packing. Now Napoleon is on the offensive and is racing toward Vienna.
Take up your Marchall's baton as the French. Attempt to destroy the
Austrian army before it can unite. Or as Archduke Charles, defeat
Napoleon's forces on the legendary Marchfeld.
