| Battle of Vienna AD 1683 In 1673 on the fields near Chocim Hetman Jan Sobieski stopped Turkish invasion on Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Ottomans had to find a different way to conquer Christian Europe - Austria became a new target. In 1682 Hungarians started an anti-Habsburg uprising, as a result Turkish army reached Vienna on 14th June 1683 without any significant resistance. 300 thousand fanatic warriors commanded by Kara Mustafa began the siege of Austrian capital, defended by 18 thousand soldiers under Ernst Starhemberg. After 2 months of heroic defense, Turks breached the walls starting bloody streetfights, finally the help has come - army of Poland and German States, including Bavaria, Swabia, Franconia and Saxony, led by Polish King, Jan III Sobieski, crowned after Chocim victory and called by the Turks "The Lion of Lechistan". The battle took place on 12th September, the decisive charge of Polish and German cavalry was personally led by the King. "The same enemy which we defeated under Chocim, now stands in front of us. Although we are in foreign land, we do not fight for foreign interest. We fight for our own country and for Christianity, not for an Emperor, but for the God" ~Joannes III Sobieski to his soldiers before the battle. |

| Help is coming! 2)Engagement Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning, missles from Polish cannons located on the Kahlenberg hill flew over the Turkish camp. The Ottomans were completely unaware of the possibility to be attacked from this side and they don't have any trenches there. They only barriers that do not allow Christian troops to charge straightly the Turkish camp are small villages and vineyards guarded by some janissaries. German and Polish infantry, supported by cannons from the top of the hill, must capture these points to clear the way for main assault. Meanwhile, the Tatar horde is flanking the Christian troops and probably will have to face Polish cavalry. This phase will be played as battle. The winner of cavalry combat will be able to help infantry in fight for strategic points.

Winged death 3)Slaughter The fights and preperations have been going on for whole day. Real, main phase of battle has not event started, but in this moment, its result became obvious for all those who ever heard about Polish cavalry and may imagine what happens when a massive charge of 20 000 horsemen reaches unfortified military camp full of frightened infantry. This will be played as siege, Turkish flag will be placed in the centre of their camp and defenders will have 5 lives. Historically all was over after 30 minutes, so it is the maximum time for this round.
