Austerlitz: Or, Napoleon Punches a Hole Through My Face

Hi everyone!

I'm enjoying the game immensely, but in the Austerlitz scenario Napoleon, well, punches a hole through my face. Every battle with the Emperor leads to lopsided results like me losing 10k troops to his...10. Through avoiding his forces and selectively bushwhacking French units that stick their necks out too far, I have managed, at best, to lose by 100 VP. This was a game when I defeated the Army of Italy and captured Zurich to boot!

Help! Is this scenario beatable? Is Napoleon too powerful? I defy the combined Austro-Russian forces to scratch him!

Thanks!

Mark
