The Battle of Maloyaroslavets 24 October 1812.
One of the most important battles of the Napoleonic wars.
Napoleon started his retreat from Moscou South to find good winter quarters.
His route was blocked by the Russians in Maloyaroslavets.

There will be hundreds of figures , French Italians Bavarians and of course Russians.
