Wise Bayonets

This game is the Napoleonic battle of river Trebbia (june 1799). Wise Bayonets uses the same rules system of Masséna at Loano, integrated with rules needed to reflect the different battle terrain and tactical situation. Compared to the previous game much more emphasis is given to cavalry and much less to the formation of tirailleurs (almost useless in the plain between rivers Tidone, Trebbia and Po).
