Author [HWK]Stu, Ramillies (FB Map) 1706 (War of Spanish Succession). Marlborough and his Allied armies (red) followed up a brilliant victory at Blenheim with this battle in which a feint to a flank preceded a knock-out punch to the French (blue) center with massed cavalry (cavalry being giant percentages of both armies). Similarly, Master Map Maker Stu has followed up his map of Blenheim with his own "victory" in map creation, Ramillies. Red attacks, one-upgrade, read enclosed material.
