1793 is a year of opportunities thrown away. The allies dominate the poorly disciplined French army, but waste the summer in pointless sieges, even after the road to France is wide open. All the allies are narrowly focused on selfish interests rather than interested in setting France to rights. The siege of Dunkirk reveals the British are also not ready for war.
The battle of Neerwinden and the other major actions of the war in Belgium. There is also coverage of the Pyrenees Campaign and Toulon.
We see early actions for Ney, Bernadotte, Mortier and Jourdan for the French. Archduke Charles, Schwartzenberg, Mack, the Duke of York and Scharnhorst for the allies.
