Description

Wellington vs Massena is a simulation of the Battle of Fuentes de Onoro, the French attempt to drive off the Anglo-Portuguese army besieging the fortress of Almeida. The battle took place from May 3 to May 5, 1811 on the Spanish-Portuguese border, west of the fortress of Ciudad Rodrigo and east of the Com river. The game is meant to be played by two players, one commanding the French army under Marshal Andre Massena, Duke of Rivoli, and the other the Anglo-Portuguese allies under Sir Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington.

The game can be played solitaire.
