The battle of austerlitz will go down as the greatest battle, the greatest stroke of genius of napoleon's storied career. The allied austrian and russian army is at the top of the protsen heights, and napoleon is waiting at the bottom. He intentionally weakens his right flank to make it an attractive place to attack. And he places good troops there who will be able to defend it for a while even though they'll be hugely outnumbered.
