TWO Heavy Shock AND Lancers. That's a lot of cavalry

I used two large infantry units on a hill with their flank covered by a nearly impassible to cavalry to block his larger light cavalry unit. When it tried to get close it was knocked back. The Heavy Shock Cuirassiers drew with my own Heavy Shock Dragoons, the 2nd unit charged and defeated them, and it was then destroyed by my Hussar's in the flank.

Wellington looks toward the Austrian Army, and places his battalions with care. One of the redoubts with Portuguese Militia is to his right.

Following his first failed attempt to breach the first line of  TORRES VEDRAS in SOUTHERN PORTUGAL before nightfall, EMPEROR NAPOLEON has sent one of his Marshall's forward with a large AUSTRIAN CORPS of infantry, cavalry and artillery to attack elsewhere on the line. 

The VISCOUNT LORD WELLINGTON has placed his defenses on top of two hills and entrenched his troops to defend a road that leads towards LISBON.
