Napoleonic Wars Question: Victory at Austerlitz?

[Franz Josef II]

What would be the immediate and long term consequences to an Austro - Russian victory at Austerlitz? Could this turn back the French juggernaught earlier than otl, or "merely" secure more favorable terms for Austria (vis a vis their Polish territories)?

 

[Richter von Manthofen]

SHort answer - a Calition win could result in Prussia also declaring war on France. THE war would last longer.

But I assume that The Austrians lsot any chance of victory after teh Battle of Ulm (They should have better cordinated with the Russians)

Quick answer -It would have seen the vast majority of the french army destroyed.As they where right at the end of a tenuous supply line,and alot of troops had just done a forced march to get to the battle.Napoleon scurrying for the france to quickly raise another army for the defence of France.As Prussia most probably,would be attacking across the Rhine

 

[Franz Josef II]

If the Prussians, Austrians, and Russians continue towards France as a flood of armed men, I presume Napoleon would not be able to rescue the situation. However, that being said, perhaps we might see something like the 'miracle' of the 100 Days?

In any case, in this alternate scenario where Austria and Russia (and let's say Prussia jumps in as well) turn the tide against France, what would the post war conference be like?

If destroys Napoleon's aura of invincibility and that French Dominance had to be taken for granted early and put them on the defensive for the first time in a decade - seven years before the Invasion of Russia. If Napoleon is smart (unlikely since this was at the height of his hubris - he had just had the Duc D'Enghien executed on flimsy charges even his subordinates thought were a mistake) he would sue for peace and keep his throne. He also never marries Marie-Louise and there is no Habsburg alliance since they would no be willing to "sacrifice" her (in her father's words) to a Corsican upstart when they don't have to. Which means Napoleon may have to look elsewhere for a wife (and no - it still won't be the Tsar's sister).
