Jena-Auerstaedt includes three campaigns. The campaign entitled "Action on 14 October 1806” covers the critical of the Prussian army as it attempted to march to Naumburg while Napoleon attempted to intercept them. The historical results were the battles of Jena-Auerstaedt. Can the Prussians alter the outcome of the campaign and change history, or will Napoleon crush them before they march to safety?

The second campaign, "The Russians are Coming," features Bennigsen’s army arriving to reinforce the Prussians during the early portion of the campaign. This campaign file will result in one scenario allowing the players to fight on a large map of over 6,000 square kilometers. The players will have the opportunity to decide if the Russians could have changed the course of history had they been in the campaign area of Jena during the early part of October.

The third and largest campaign is "Scharnhorst's Campaign Plan," the magnum opus of the game. The Prussians historically chose to fight rather than fall back to link up with the advancing Russians. This campaign allows the Prussian player to follow the campaign plan of Prussia’s General von Scharnhorst who felt that the army was unprepared to meet Napoleon in the field on equal terms. Spanning a range of eight battles over 34 maps, the players will campaign over an area from Halle in the west to the Oder River in the east, and from south of Berlin to just north of Dresden.

Altogether, Campaign Jena-Auerstaedt comprises the richest Napoleonic experience available for the PC. Along with the standard set of game editors the simulation includes new units and leaders, as well as the great game engine many have come to enjoy over the past five years.
