Augusta era wars and naval skirmishes across Europe

Reports from Berlin, Saxony, and Hanover describe Prince Henry detaching troops to aid Pomerania while Prussian defenses brace. A 2000-strong Ruffian detachment clashed with Gen Knoblauch before retreating, and Marshal Broglio’s forces encamp near Casfel as reinforcements move to Broglio. Royal news from Brussels, Rome, and Venice cover political moves, church decrees, and Ottoman-Russian tensions alongside naval actions in Cadiz and at sea.
