 With one flank now open Tilly nevertheless had a major positional advantage, but Gustav's smaller and lighter units were able to easily re-align to face the formerly open flank, their light guns cutting into their ranks while the heavier guns on both sides continued to exchange fire elsewhere.Tilly was soon driven from the field, his forces in disarray.Follow-up battles had similar outcomes, and Tilly was eventually mortally wounded during one of these.
