At Quatre Bras, a wild battle occurred. Initially, the French IT Corps and Cavalry Corps face a lone division of Dutch Belgian infantry: but the cautious French advance is thwarted and British reinforcements begin to arrive. Throughout the day Ney, who is conducting the French forces at the battle, awaits the arrival of I Corps and conducts piecemeal attacks against an increasingly strong British position. The First Corps never arrives and, although the vital crossroads at Quatre Bras are taken briefly by French cavalry it is the British who hold the ground at the end of the day. Though the British have won the battle of Quatre Bras, the Prussian retreat makes the British position untenable. Wellington elects to retreat towards Brussels and previously surveyed defensive positions.
The Anglo-Allied Player controls all Netherlanders, Brunswickers, Hanoverians, Nassauers, and British units. The units of these nationalities are always Friendly to each other, and always Enemy to the French. Leader units are not used in the Quatre Bras Folio (they are used only in the Campaign Game).
The side with the most VP's at the end is the winner. If the French Army ever reaches its Demoralization level the British player is the winner. If the British Army ever reaches its Disintegration level the French player is the winner. If both events happen at the same time the current player is the winner.
