Marschall Vorwärts! is the thirteenth game in the Pocket Battle Games series from LPS, Inc.

Coalition forces under Blucher attacked here in an attempt to take control of the vital supply routes feeding into the city of Leipzig.

Marschall Vorwärts! is a mini-game, postcard sized. Rules at the back, map front and 17 double sided counters along the sides.

The game is a hex and counter game where troops are activated though a standard deck of cards: black activates French units, red Coalition. How many and all is determined by the specific card.

Combat is resolved by comparing combat strengths of the units and drawing cards from that same deck. Whenever a joker is drawn, the turn is over, the deck is reshuffled and a new turn begins.

Goal of the game is to occupy a certain hex on the map at the end of 6 turns.

This game is part of a series of postcard games about the battle of Leipzig, which can be played individually or combined into a single game called A Bridge Too Few (for this you will need an article published in the 2013 Against The Odds Annual): 13) Marschall Vorwärts! 14) "A Matter of Honor, Sire" 15) The Nations Assemble 16) Trapping the Ogre
