Butcher's Bill

Casualties on the Katzian side were heavy despite the significant advantage in force size. Several units never got into action. The cavalry suffered very heavily (about 50% of total casualties). The losses by the Guard Brigade were unexpected as well. The total destruction of two enemy infantry regiments will help in the next battle. Additionally, the two militia units that routed (one without being engaged) are lost for the campaign. The Doft/Didd cavalry suffered heavy losses, but they will be reinforced in the next battle.

  1. Yes, casualties were about double what I expected. The casualties in cavalry will effect the campaign...not enought troops for a good pursuit.

  3. Judging by the losses overall, the Doftian and Diddite put up a spirited and courageous resistance... A fine opening to the campaign!
