On September 30, he took part to the battle of Soor where he captured the war chest of the Prussian army. The same year, he was promoted general of cavalry and received the commandment of the fortress of Ofen.
In 1746, Nádasdy was transferred to the Italian theatre of operation. On March 17, he attacked a relief force at Guastalla. On June 16, he took part to the victorious battle of Piacenza. On August 12, he was at the indecisive battle of Rottofreddo. He also saw action at Novi and Genoa.
