	Barthelemy Catherine Joubert
		Thus he was in charge of the retaining force at the battle of Rivoli, and in the campaign of 1799 (invasion of Austria) he commanded the detached left wing of Bonaparte's army in the Tirol, and fought his way through the mountains to rejoin his chief in Styria.
		The battle of Novi[?] was disastrous to the French arms, not merely because it was a defeat, but above all because Joubert himself was amongst the first to fall (August 15, 1799).
		After the battle his remains were brought to Toulon and buried in Fort La Malgue, and the revolutionary government paid tribute to his memory by a ceremony of public mourning (16 September 1799).

	Battle of Rivoli - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of Rivoli was fought on January 14–January 15, 1797 at Rivoli Veronese (near Verona) in Italy and resulted in a victory for the French under General Bonaparte against the Austrians under General Alvinczy.
		Alvinczy's plan was to overwhelm Barthelemy Catherine Joubert in the mountains east of Lake Garda with the concentration of five seperate columns, and thereby gain access to the open country north of Mantua where Austrian superior numbers would be able to defeat Bonaparte's smaller Army of Italy.
		The battle would be a contest between Alvtincz's efforts to concentrate his disperssed columns versus the arrival of French reinforcements.

		The battle is one of the first Napoleonic victory of his first Italian Campaign and its a very good introduction to this fantastic game system.
		Rivoli uses the infamous LIM activation system, almost a trademark of the latest Berg's designs (a factor that I normally like very much).
		And Rivoli is not an exception: with only 6 Austrian corps and 4 French ones, the game plays fast and smoothly, with a terrific gaming situation, tense from start to finish (13 turns at the max, but with sudden death victory rules that are probable for both sides).

		In the campaign of 1796 the young general commanded a brigade under Augereau, and soon attracted the special attention of Bonaparte, who caused him to be made a general of division in December, and repeatedly selected him for the command of important detachments.
		The battle of Novi was disastrous to the French arms, not merely because it was a defeat, but above all because Joubert himself was amongst the first to fall (Aug. 15, 1799).
		After the battle his remains were brought to Toulon and buried in Fort La Malgue, and the revolutionary government paid tribute to his memory by a ceremony of public mourning (Sept. 16).

		Returning to Europe with Napoleon, he was present at Marengo (1800) as second-in-command of the Consular Guard, and led a brilliant and successful cavalry charge at the close of the day, though its effect on the battle was not as decisive as Napoleon pretended.
		As MassÃ©na's second-in-command he was present at the battle of Fuentes d'Onoro, but Napoleon never detached him for very long, and in 1812 he commanded the Guard Cavalry at the Battle_of_Borodino and in the retreat from Moscow.
		Wherever engaged he won further distinction, and at the beginning of the 1813 campaign he was appointed to the command of the whole of Napoleon's cavalry.

	RELATION OF THE BATTLE OF MARENGO, FOUGHT 14 JUNE 1800.
		The battles of Lonato and Castiglione crowned these great and bold plans and defeated Wurmser, in spite of his numerous cavalry and his immense strength in artillery, and went into the passes of the Tyrol, leaving in the hands of the French people a large part of his army.
		At Rivoli, the enemy division which had to go around the entire French army, indeed arrives on the position which it had to take; but it arrives there only when the other divisions of the Austrian army are defeated, and is itself surrounded and taken.
		The battle of Pyramids, near Cairo, that of Mont-Tabor, in the siege in Syria, and that of Aboukir, are all three of a different conception; he made no mistake, and knew how to apply to circumstances so new as varied all the facets of the art of the war.

		The dark and lofty genius which they display, their indistinct but solemn pictures of heroic passions, love, battle, victory, and death, were appropriate food for Napoleon's young imagination; and, his taste being little scrupulous as to minor particulars, Ossian continued to be through life his favourite poet.
		The battle of St. George--so called from one of the suburbs of the city--was fought on the 13th of September, and after prodigious slaughter, the French remained in possession of all the causeways; so that the blockade of the city and fortress was henceforth complete.
		Massena avoided battle; but such was the overwhelming superiority of Alvinzi, that he was forced to abandon the position of Bassano.

		The french were not that of a great counter to the germans, as the germans wasted most of their forces on attacking england in the battle of britain and then wasted the rest in Russia with lack of heating and oil.
		There was indeed a Second Battle of the Marne, which was the occasion of the great Allied counter offensive, commencing July 18th 1918, which was principally a French action, although the Americans did lend significant and effective support.
		The French have won plenty of wars and battles, almost too many to even bother with (which is why your friend probably didn't bother), and undoubtedly France has had one of the greatest military histories of all time.

		He served under Napoleon Bonaparte in the Italian campaign, won the battle of Rivoli (1797), where he earned a reputation for rapaciousness, and distinguished himself in Napoleon's campaigns of 1800 and 1809 against Austria.
		Masséna's subsequent failure in the Peninsular War is often attributed to the lack of cooperation of the other French commanders.
		Masséna's relations with Napoleon were somewhat strained because of Masséna's republican convictions, but he lacked political ambition, and Napoleon honored his military achievements by making him duke of Rivoli (1808) and prince of Essling (1810).
