I already have two SYW battles I'm waiting to game but adding another to the list wouldn't hurt.
Torgau in 1760 seems a possibility.
For those of you who don't know it:

The compelling aspect of it as a game is that the Austrians sit in the centre and are assailed from two sides. This doesn't happen often.
The challenge is the size of the battle (both in numbers & in space), which might make it difficult/impossible to do.
The other challenge is Ziethen's "Hail Mary" attack: it might be too difficult to allow a possibility....unless you have an umpire (who'd be me....sigh....).
At any rate, anyone gamed Torgau? I'd like to hear your experiences.

Re: Anyone gamed Torgau?
No, not yet, but it's one I've always wanted to do. However, I'm short on the order of battle by 20 Prussian infantry battalions and 9 grenadier battalions. That said, if I draft my Wurttembergers into the Prussian army, that'll add 10 infantry and 3 grenadier battalions, so we'll be part-way there.
