Battle of Quatre Bras using General de Brigade Rules

This was a first attempt at this battle using the Deluxe Edition General de Brigade rules.

Foy's 9^th Division were tasked with capturing Germoincourt before attacking Quatre Bras. Bachelu's 5^th Division took the right flank attacking towards Quatre Bras from the north supported by the 2^nd Cavalry Division. The Guard Light Cavalry anchored the left flank. Most of Perponchers 2^nd Netherlands Division were positioned in Bossu Wood and across to the village of Quatre Bras.

Bachelu's division swept aside the 27^th Dutch Jaeger as they swung towards the north of Quatre Bras. Foy's division however struggled to capture Germoincourt due to the stubborn resistance of the 5^th Dutch Militia. They only fell back after suffering severe losses and delaying Foy's advance.

Merlen's Netherlands light cavalry brigade arrived followed by Picton's 5^th Division who were immediately moved towards the allied left flank blocking Bachelu's march. Pack and Kempt's brigades lead supported by the 5^th Hanoverian Brigade.

Meanwhile Jerome's 6^th Division arrived on the French side and moved to attack Bossu Wood. They were followed by the heavy cavalry of the 11^th Cavalry Division which moved to support Bachelu.
