The second stage of the battle 11:00-16:00. «Charge of the Light Brigade».
By 11:00 the Allies had moved enough troops to the battlefield to try to retake the redoubts lost in the morning.
Could we call the actual attack by the British Light Horse Brigade a full-fledged counterattack? It’s doubtful.
Despite the fact that quite significant forces were supposed to be involved in the attack, the task was set so vaguely, and the coordination of the allies’ actions turned out to be below any criticism.
The result is well known to everyone. And it is clear that it cannot be considered the result of a full-fledged counterattack.
The most succinct definition of this action was given by the French General Bosquet, who observed what was happening from the Sapun Mountain: “It is beautiful, but it is not war.”
However, in this scenario the Allied player has the opportunity to try to restore the «status quo» lost as a result of the first Russian morning operation.
The scenario is designed for 20 Rounds. In this case, the allies use two sets of Orders tokens.
