La Bataille de Valmy

Two French armies led by Generals François Kellermann and Charles Dumouriez stopped the advance near the northern village of Valmy in Champagne-Ardenne.

At this stage, to everyone's surprise, Brunswick broke off the Prussian attack and retreated from the field, giving the Revolutionaries their first major military victory.

There is no expectation in the rules that Prussia will retreat in the face of French artillery, so the players can try to discover who might have won the battle had the Duke of Brunswick pressed on.

[3] La Bataille de Valmy was designed by Jean-Jacques Petit, who carefully researched the battle before creating the game.

Marcela-Froideval concluded, "Its realism is the fruit of the time spent in research, documentation, and also successive tests and refinement of the game by the author.
