Summary of Northern Spain Campaign – 1 September 1813

                                                     Regional map of Northern Spain

There are three regions in Southern Spain
But unlike Germany, the French do not have a secure rear area
All of Spain is in revolt against the French, who only control the area they occupy

Fourth French army are in Burgos
Their main depot is in Bayonne

The Anglo/Portuguese army is in Valladolid
Their main depot is in Oporto

French Strategy in Spain
King Joseph is the commander in chief of all French troops in Spain.
However he commands no respect from either his army commanders
Both Soult and Suchet are determined to remain independent commanders
Suchet wants to invade southern Spain and become King of Andalusia
Soult wants to defeat Wellington and become King of Portugal
All three agree that Soult will drive Wellington out of Spain
Suchet will invade Andalusia and take Seville
He will then detach two of his four corps to support Soult
Soult will invade Portugal and drive Wellington out of the Peninsula

Anglo-Spanish Strategy in Spain
Wellington is the commander in chief of all allied troops in the Peninsula
However all Spanish generals deeply resent this appointment
Giron is determined to take Madrid and become the hero of Spain
Wellington is well aware that he cannot rely on his Spanish generals
To defeat the French he must first take Madrid
To do so the Spanish army must hold southern Spain to pin Suchet
Most importantly the Spanish must avoid a comprehensive defeat
This would allow both French armies to concentrate against Wellington

1 September 1813 – Northern Spain – End of Burgos Campaign

Battles fought during campaign phase

Soult won three of the six battles fought
Wellington won the other three

To win the campaign Wellington had to take the city of Burgos
He lost two of the first three battles and had to retreat towards Valladolid
He won two of the next three, and halted the French advance
However he failed to take Burgos and lost the campaign.

The campaign started on 7 August and ended on 28 September 2025

We play tested new rules for artillery counter battery fire during this campaign. Previously artillery required a roll of 6 on 1D6, and often spent most of the game in counter battery fire. A lucky dice could make it impossible for the other side to press home their attack. Historically counter battery fire was pretty ineffective, but dominated most of our games. We changed the rules so that artillery could only fire on enemy guns at short range, which is 4”. This resulted in the complete absence of counter battery fire during this campaign. This much improved the game, and we are keeping the new rule.

Wellington ordered his army to hold Valladolid
