Gustav II Adolf was known to have led from the front and to have put himself in harm's way on several occasions. At the Battle of Lutzen, he led a heroic cavalry charge which resulted in the collapse of the Imperial left wing and push towards the center of the Catholic forces. This battle was a turning point in the Thirty Years War for the Protestants. Out of curiosity, what would have changed if Gustav II Adolf's luck ran out and he died in this battle?
