Bigger forces.

Post by Gunfreak » Sun Oct 09, 2011 4:33 pm

So now it looks like I'm gonna have a semi regular Napoleoinc game.
We are probebly going to have at our desposal much bigger tables then what I got at home.

We have one guy that is going to concentrate on Prussians, atleast for now. I'm going to do British, leaving my Russians to sleep for a while.
I got two battalions of prussians I'm gonig to get around to, but for now it's british.

I don't want it to be ENGLISH!! So even tho they are all redcoats, most of them will be either German or Scottish.

My British brigade will be 4 British battalions two of which are Highlanders.
Then a 3 battalion KGL brigade
And finnaly a 5 battalion Hanoverian landwehr brigade.
The Highlanders and KGL will be the good units, With 1st KGL probebly beeing the best one.

This gives me a good sized division of 12 battalions some 7000 Soldiers.
In this division I'll add a 9pdr battery.
Ad to that, a strong cav division, two heavy dragoons in one brigade, some 890 heavy troopers, and a much bigger light cav brigade of 2 light dragoons and one hussar regiment, some 1700 troopers and a horse battery.
That gives me 2500 cav and 7000 infantry. Or 9500 combined, a small corps.

The heavy cav should give it a little extra power.

Combine that with thier prussian allies and we got quite an allied force.

But that means we need just as many french.
