Posting here because the pictures thread takes 30 minutes to load (I am too impatient):
French Curassiers burst through their own line to charge a British battery who are backed up with infantry support...
FIRE!
Are they still coming?
Yes - the infantry begin to fire and the number of rideless horses grows...
But still on they come - the infantry lines fire again...
Hold the line! Get ready lads!
What's left of the cavalry strike home and the melee ensues - any dismounted horsemen fight on foot...
Some break through the line but are stranded - loose horses run for safety as the curassiers turn to head back to their own lines...
But the British pull them down as they try to retreat - no mercy to man, nor beast (nose or rear-end)
Broken, the French cavalry flees... and the British fire again as they leave. This part of the battle is over...
