Confederation of the Rhine troops-Westphalian - again

Post by david53 »

Hi There

Yes Westfalian again sadly would I be completely wrong if I added some Guard Units to the army I am building, they did raise a few both in Germany and in 1812.

Not wrong at all (sadly or otherwise.) Be assured I have a subtantial 25mm Westphalnian army myself so would never miss them out.

The 1812 Westphalian list ( which can be sued to model the 7th Corps or the national army) allows the Gd Cheveaux legers (as lancers) up to 4 stands ( as Core cavalry) and as optional infantry units - the Guard Grenadiers, Karabiniers and the Jaegers - upo to 4 of each any of those three types with a max of 8 stands between them . The Jaegers are assesed differently to the other two.

Generals and initiative are pretty ropey though!

Anything else helpful to know?

Hi There

Took your advice about getting the book about Napoleon's german allies a real interesting book.

You answered the question I was just to aske about if the Gd Cheveaux legers could have lances thanks.

Thanks for your help I'm sure I'll get stuck on something.
