War in years that end in 2!

It's 200 years since the war of 1812 and Napoleon's invasion of Russia.

It's 150 years since the Battle of Pea Ridge.

But why limit ourselves?

As long as it happened in a multiple of ten years from the present day, than it's worth celebrating! So anyone who puts on a battle that occured in a year that ends with the number two gets $5 discount on admission.

The Battle of Lutzen: The most decisive drawn battle in history

Germany, 1632. The Protestant army, led by Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden, had advanced into southern Germany with 20,000 men. In September 1632, Wallenstein invaded Saxony with 30,000 men, threatening Gustavus's lines of communication. Gustavus was forced to respond, marching north before entrenching to wait for reinforcements. At this point, Wallenstein splitt off a third of his army. Hearing this, Gustavus rushed to attack.
