Poltava

...In the spring of 1709, after an unsuccessful winter campaign, the army of the Swedish King Charles XII (35 thousand soldiers, 32 guns) besieged Poltava.

On June 16, at the military council, Peter I decided to give the Swedes a general battle, for which on June 25 he positioned the Russian army in a position near the village of Yakovtsy (5 kilometers north of Poltava), placing it in a fortified camp. The field in front of the camp, about 2.5 kilometers wide, flanked by dense forest and thickets, was fortified by a system of redoubts. The redoubts were located at gunshot distance from each other, which ensured tactical interaction between them. Peter the Great's plan was to exhaust the enemy in a forward position (a line of redoubts), and then defeat him in an open field battle.

On the night of June 27, the Swedish army of about 20,000 soldiers and 4 guns moved to the Russian position. And the battle began. At 3 a.m., the Russian and Swedish cavalry engaged in a stubborn battle at the redoubts. By 5 a.m., the Swedish cavalry was overturned, but the infantry following it captured the first two Russian redoubts. Russian Russian cavalry, advancing behind the retreating Russian cavalry, got their right flank under the crossfire of rifle and cannon fire from the Russian fortified camp, suffered heavy losses and retreated in panic.

At about 6 a.m., Peter I built an army in front of the camp in two lines. He positioned infantry in the center and cavalry on the flanks. Artillery deployed in the first line of infantry. A reserve was left in the camp. The Swedish army also lined up against the Russians in a linear battle formation. At 9 a.m., the Swedes went on the offensive. Met by heavy Russian artillery fire, they rushed into a bayonet attack. In a fierce melee, they managed to push the center of the first line of Russians. But Peter I, who was closely watching the course of the battle, personally led the battalion's counterattack and drove the Swedes back to their original positions. Soon, the Russian infantry, inspired by the example of Peter, his military courage, began to push the enemy, and the cavalry covered his flanks.

By 11 o'clock, the Swedes began to withdraw, which soon turned into a stampede. Charles XII fled to the Ottoman Empire with the traitor Mazepa. The remnants of the Swedish troops retreated to Perevolochna, where they were overtaken and laid down their weapons.

The Battle of Poltava predetermined the victorious outcome of the long Northern War for Russia and raised Russia's international prestige. The military power of the Swedes was undermined, the glory of the invincibility of Charles XII was dispelled. Skilful formation of the battle order, engineering equipment of the battlefield, creation of an advanced position, allocation of a significant reserve, use of the properties of the closed area in the interests of combat - in all this, the Russian army, led by Peter I, departed from the patterns of linear tactics.

The battle of Poltava with renewed vigor showed the great importance of the morale of the troops for victory in battle. The words of Peter addressed to the Russian soldiers before the beginning of the Battle of Poltava aroused a mighty patriotic mood:

"Warriors! The hour has come that must decide the fate of the Fatherland. You should not think that you are fighting for Peter, but for the state entrusted to Peter, for your family, for the Fatherland, for our Orthodox Faith and the Church. You should not be confused by the glory of the invincibility of the enemy, which you have proven false more than once with your victories. Keep the Truth and God, your protector, in front of you in battle. And know about Peter that his life is not dear to him. Only Russia would live in glory and prosperity for your well-being."

These chess sets are a wonderful souvenir for a true leader. A prudent strategist who knows how (and does not shy away from) doing what he requires from subordinates.

The set is delivered on an exclusive board made of solid black oak. The oak is black to the full depth, so small scratches and scuffs do not become annoying (due to their contrast) moments, but add individuality and self-identity to the board. The external dimensions of the board are 47x47 cm, but the playing field itself is much smaller - the cell is 42x42 mm, and the field, respectively, is 336x336 mm. Despite its relatively modest size, the field allows you to freely arrange the pieces and easily rearrange them during the game. It is typed from alternately arranged squares of American walnut and maple veneer. The edge of the board is decorated with thematic carvings of battle scenes, which, nevertheless, allows you to put figures removed from the field on it.

The figures are cast from a zinc alloy, which guarantees them from the traditional settling of tin miniatures with increasing temperature. Each figure is a soldier, the small details and ammunition of which are favorably emphasized by blackening or painting the color "gold". The cylindrical base of the figures is made of hardwood (beech, oak or ash), which reliably protects the playing field from mechanical damage.

Inside the board there are drawers sliding out in opposite directions, which can be completely removed from the case. Inside each box there is a soft bed draped with velvet, which securely holds the figures during transportation.

The kit is delivered in a shipping carton.
