In Spain, San Sebastian surrenders. Madrid continues to hold out. The Portuguese stare down the French.

December 1813. The turn begins with Russia in Instability. But the Prussians, undistracted by the Danzig thorn in their side these many months, return to retake Berlin 70:19, crushing the French and taking Napoleon prisoner. Wellington and I Corps magically reappear in Magdeburg. I have no idea what is causing this particular glitch. (It's kind funny, actually.) The Austrians have advanced into the French homeland. Paris is not too far away! Also shown are the political standings going into the Economic phase.

And here are the final dispositions in Spain. This is not the end of the game, just the end of my playtest and AAR.

Overall, I'm please with what I saw with my 1805 playtesting and now with my 1813 playtesting this past week. Along the way I've identified and resolved more issues than I care to count. Suffice to say, I think this v1.26.02 Beta is ready. I want to check and clean up a couple of things, so hopefully I'll post this later today.

If you didn't notice during this AAR, both AI sides were beating the hell out of each other and it was very interesting to watch. There are still a few reckless actions, but mostly the AI is performing pretty well. The question now is: can you do better than the AI?
