		The Battle of Legnica (Polish: Bitwa pod Legnicą), also known as the Battle of Liegnitz (German: Schlacht von Liegnitz) or Battle of Wahlstatt (German: Schlacht bei Wahlstatt), was a battle which took place at Legnickie Pole (Wahlstatt) near the city of Legnica (Liegnitz) in Silesia on April 9, 1241.
		Despite the Mongol victory in the ensuing battle, this was the furthest west their forces reached due to political destabilization inside the Mongol Empire.
		However, the battle is now seen as a crushing defeat for the allied forces; the Mongols had no intentions at the time to extend the campaign westward, while their retreat was because of the death of Ögedei Khan, the Khagan (Grand Khan), not because of suffering excessive casualties.

		Modern battles Count Schlieffen characterizes even more than earlier battles as a "struggle for the flanks." Therefore he stresses the necessity, in case parts of an army have made frontal contact with the enemy, that the neighboring columns be allowed to march further so that they may be able to turn against flank and rear.
		The problem of fighting a battle of extermination with a strength half that of the enemy was, however, solved to a certain degree.
		Ney reached the battle field in time, he was not sent against the flank, but against the point of the right wing and Blucher, however great his wish to hold out, was able to escape the fatal blow and was obliged to do so.

		Considering the losses incurred by Mongols during the campaign (battle of Tursk, Chmielnik, siege of Cracow, Racibor and actions on Kujavia) Mongols army at Legnica could not be composed of not more than 8 thousands warriors.
		I also am aware that many of the Poles think this battle was some sort of turning point where even though they lost they somehow saved Europe by inflicting casualties, this is not true, they were thoroughly beaten by mobility and were really only saved by the death of Ogodei due to alcohaulism.
		The Labuda's version (in which I base in battle reconstruction) is now most widely accepted by polish scholars (as well as some german like Oswald Wolff and Georg Kohler) althought some of polish scholars (Marek Cetwiński, Józef Mularczyk and Józef Matuszewski) disagreed with Labuda on many matters.

		The Battle of LIEGNITZ, like those of Rossbach and Leuthen earlier, shows FREDERICK the Great's skill in defeating a superior force by using his highly mobile army in a concentrated attack, keeping the enemy as much in the dark about his intentions as possible.
		The success of both armies changed frequently during battle, due to the various reinforcements they received, and at nightfall neither of them had won a decisive victory; but the French losses exceeded those of the Russians, who had lost more than a third of their men.

		Subject: Two BSO reviews The Devil's Horsemen (BSO games) The second offer from BSO is a game on the battle of Liegnitz 1241 AD, the last stand of Polish and European cavalry against the Mongols.
		In a solo battle it's perhaps possible to even the odds a lot and a few more times could be possible for the European Knights to have a victory.
		Even if the system, looking at the simulation value of it, is certainly better than the one used in KfH, the total effect is terribly less fun and fascinating and that depends probably on the choice of the battle, not very balanced at the start and almost unplayable to tell the truth.
