Relive the pivotal Battle of Bailén, an unexpected clash that marked a turning point in the struggle against Napoleonic dominance.
In this landscape of rolling hills and ancient olive groves, two armies prepare to collide: General Dupont's seasoned French divisions, confident in their superiority, and the Spanish forces—a blend of regular troops and patriotic militiamen—driven by the fervent defense of their nation. Feel the tension before the engagement, cunningly plan your movements, and strategically deploy your units to emulate or alter the outcome of this historic conflict. Will you be able to replicate the surprising Spanish victory or rewrite history in favor of the French Empire?
Bailén 1808 is a historical wargame that recreates this iconic battle.
