Campaign Post Operations Report #24 - Swedish deflation.

 With the Crown Prince now a prisoner of the French, orders for the Army of the North were somewhat subtle ...

Well here is my move. The Swedes will group up to the west and prepare to
attack the French.
I guess Bulow will have to stop and regroup by looking at the map so he will
not move once he gets over the river so he can get his bearings so to speak.
