5th June 1816
The British attack continues. Because they made taking Edinburgh impossible the invasion force is out of supply and in danger of being wiped out. I retreat some units and advance some to act as a rearguard. I attack Montrael.

3rd October 1816
The British haven't been pursuing my retreating invasion force and so they're in excellent shape compared to the complete annihilation I had predicted.
