From the Publisher:

This battle deals with the situation at the start of the Battle for Ulm and the French cutting off of the Austrians.  General Mahler of Marshall Ney's VI Corps is ordered to the south bank of the Danube.  The general is faced by Austrians under the command of Baron D'Aspre who are positioned on the opposite bank of the Danube and are well supported.  Mahler splits his force into three groups and attempts to take the three bridges in the area.  His main force has no success in getting across the Danube in the center of his line, but they do capture the Baron and put his force into the dark with lesser leadership.  Meanwhile, a bit further north, one French regiment manages to cross the Danube and proceeds to overwhelm a strong Austrin force guarding the crossing.  Mahler then orders his remaining regiments to maneuver to the successful crossing site and together Mahler's divisions defeats the Austrians.

The game features adjustable strengths (that help decide firepower and melee strength based on formations). Turns are 10 minutes of time.  A few special features are adjustable strengths, elite units, and Levels of Order (LoO).  Units start with a certain amount of these LoO and as they lose them their abilities are reduced.  Movement of each division level formation is randomized through a Leadership factor for each commander at that level.  This game is a good introductory game for the Incredible Courage system.  The level of fidelity and the level of playability have been mixed extremely well.  Players will need to analyze many differing factors to apply the winning tactics to the battlefield.  They will also be forced to consider contingencies since units will not always have the strength that they normally would.   No gaming the combat system here by calculating the exact number of factors needed for a certain odds column.  You will never know what the odds column will be until the combat is ready to be conducted.  This battle will provide a challenge to both players.

Game play is excellent for solitaire play and moves along very quickly.  The randomized movement allows for very interactive action and you won't be sitting around waiting for the other player to finish.

Reference (Gamers HQ):

Grognard Simulations is known for their detailed and fantastic rulesets and their attention to detail concerning the gaming material, but because of the way they produce their games, You can´t compare the quality of the boxes with it from big companies like GMT or Compass Games: They are only for holding the huge amount of material, but not as a piece of art by itself (they are made from thin cardboard). This games are, like the name of the company indicates, for "real Grognards !"
