Bloody Fields of Mollwitz

"Bloody Fields Małujowice" is the first game in a tactical series titled "Battle of the Enlightenment." The game simulates the first battle of King Frederick II of Prussia.

The game uses the standard system hex and ten-chip and bones. The game is divided into stages, and these only on the activation phase cavalry commanders of the wings or the infantry. The same is treated hussars and field artillery (artillery battalion was 
reflected in the strength of infantry battalions).

Player in each activation: 
1) use supreme commander and runners for giving orders to subordinate commanders wings / line 
2) is activated towards the cavalry or infantry lines, which at first are moving and then lead the fight for weapons (infantry may alternatively attack bayonet or lead firing).

Inactive player can respond to the movement of the opponent kontrszarżami cavalry infantry reaction may be carried out in the fire. Also in the activation phase, the player reorganizes units broken.

The game is based on a system of orders. Each of the commanders of the wings / line must execute one of the commands available in the game. Orders can change leaders or chief, or commander of the wings themselves. The commander can execute the following commands: march, attack, stop.

carried defender, and if this test and come out again testing the morale of the attackers.
