With he french invaders occupying most of Spain it falls to the city of Zaragoza to take arms against the godless invaders
Another siege report people, the imperials begin digging up the approaches as the defenders fire on them and excavate mines
As the first month comes to an end the besiegers have set up the breaching batteries and are ready to assault the walls
A sortie from a corregimiento is pushed back with severe losses
In the fourth week of the siege the first breach is blasted next to the gate
The grenadiers are fist to assault, despite their valour the unit is pushed back
Led by Palafox tons of defenders stand ready to repel the invaders
A second attempt is made on the breach by two divisions of line infantry, both of wich are pushed back
After these failed assaults the french take their time, blowing several mines under the bastion and ravaging the garrison with musket fire
Another sortie ends with the destruction of a militia unit
After the garrison is brought low by canister, the imperials launch an assault on the bastion
A division of swiss climbs the breach but fails to take the walls
The poles however have better luck, sweeping the place of defenders
The french have a foothold in the city, now they must maintain it
In the left an underground battle erupts between miners, the spanish lose and their tunnels are destroyed
The defenders are quick to answer, a unit of paisanos mounts the bastion and kicks the poles out
The french proceed then with a calculated assault: while the siege battery and first line muskets blast the defenders, the second line units launch a combined assault
The spanish deploy some guns in front of a breach
The french mount the breaches once again and retake the bastion
Meanwhile the guns have opened a third breach in the wall, blowing the gates away
The gun's experiment is short lived
Quite desperate, the guardias valonas launch and ill concieved assault that is bloodily repulsed
Now overconfident, the french advance into all breaches, despite the mounting losses the defenders manage to defend the gate but lose the left building
The swiss sweep more paisanos from the wall
The final unit of defenders is destroyed by fire from an occupied building, ending thus the game
Another city falls to Napolen's might!
