Descriptions:

InElchingen(14 October 1805), Marshal Neys VI corps attacks Rieschs isolated Austrian corps. The combats between the two adversaires with comparable strengths culminates with the seizure of Elchingen Abbey. Neys dazzling victory at Elchingen also seals the fate of the principal Austrian army, entrenched at Ulm, that will surrender a few days later. (1st edition: Canons en Carton, 2004)
Hollabrunn(16 November 1805) is a chaotic engagement between the advance guard of the Grande Arme commanded by Murat and the Koutousovs rear guard that withdraws north of the Danube. Although outnumbered, Bagration manages to organise a skilful and effective defence of his positions and slow the progression of the French. (1st edition : Canons en Cartons, 2005).
Austerlitz(2 December 1805) is justifiably considered Napoleons most spectacular victory. The battle regroups three emperors and 150.000 combattants. The Austro-Russian army is sure of its victory and falls into Napoleons trap resulting in a complete and decisive defeat (1st edition : VaeVictis n58 and 64, 2004-2005).

Trois Jours de Gloire 1805offers players various situations and battles of different scopes. By commanding several divisions or several army corps, the nature of the decisions to be made changes and the games take on another dimension.
