Campaign Move 13

Campaign Diary

0800 to 1200 5 June 1813

French on the move

The campaign has entered a critical phase, with both armies moving into close contact. As this campaign involves hidden movement it is difficult for me to explain more without giving away information about the enemy.

The movement following the battle of Zeitz, and other cavalry contact reports at the end of Move 12, has lifted the veil slightly. Some commanders have become aware that they are somewhat exposed, others that they are too far from the centre of operations.

Commanders in Chief received their daily update at the end of Move 12, and have issued new orders to their corps commanders for Move 13.
