Today the Austro-Prussian war ended with the Peace of Prague. So here's a list of battles from the wikipedia. If any of you have 15mm figs for this period send in some photos. This isn't a definitive list by any means by the way but it's a start

- 24 June, Battle of Custoza: Austrian army defeats Italian army;
- 27 June, Battle of Trutnov: Austrians check Prussian advance but with heavy losses
- 27 June, Battle of Langensalza: Hanover's army defeats Prussia's;
- 27 June, Battle of Mnichovo Hradiste: Austrians fight a delaying action as they retreat into Bohemia
- 29 June, Battle of Jicin: Prussians defeat Austrians
- 3 July, Battle of Königgrätz: decisive Prussian victory against Austrians;
- 20 July, Battle of Lissa: the Austrian fleet defeats the Italian one;

- 22 July, (in last day of war), Battle of Lamac near the Bratislava: Austrians defend Bratislava against Prussian army.
Ralph, I found that British Newspaper picture that's on my blog of Prussian Cantinieres as POWS in Vienna. Any idea what battle Prussians lost their baggage train or camp for this to happen?
