Next Event - 18:45 GMT on Wednesday 4th October!Where - 33rd_Waterloo_EventOn the 16th June it becomes apparent to the Allied Armies under Marshal Blucher and Wellington that Napoleon has siezed the initative and entered Belgium. The French succeed in splitting the Allied forces, holding them in place at the Battles of Quatres Bras and Ligny. The Allies both withdraw, hoping to reunite and defeat the french wherever possible; on this understanding Wellington takes a stand at the field of Waterloo; He holds a strong defensive position on the reverse slope of the Mont St Jeane ridge, with the farmhouses of Hougoumont on his left, La Haye Sainte in his center and Papelotte on his right to anchor his defensive line in place. With both Armies awaiting battle the night before the 18th June, the stakes could not be higher... The Battle of Waterloo was pivitol in everyway, shaping Europe for the next 100 years. Therefore to do the Battle as much justice as possible each round will represent a different key part of the battle, to better illustrate how events unfolded.Please note that this Event will be replacing our Wednesday Conquest Event for this date only, our usual Conquest will continue to take place after this date.Event Stages:Stage 1 - Defence of Hougoumont - Siege (8mins)SpoilerClasses - Lines, LightsNormal SiegeAt 11:30 Jerome's Division attacked the British right flank in force, intending to draw reserves from Wellingtons' Centre.
