Re: [napsbattles] Waterloo Question,

A quick read through Chandlers Waterloo book says one division of Young Guard
and two batallions of Old Guard. Most of which is witdrawn once the Prussions
are expelled from Placenoit.

Subject: [napsbattles] Waterloo Question,





A friend of mine, whom I played my first game of NB against, his Prussians are
based on the Prussian force for Waterloo. Reading the 'Historical' portion from
that scenario, it states that the Young Guard as well as VI Corps were sent to
deal with the Prussians on the French flank. Then the Old Guard to were sent in
to retake Plancenoit from the Prussians.

My question is this,
Was the entire Imperial Guard used for dealing against the Prussians, or was it
just the Young and Old Guard Divisions as well as VI Corps?

Thanks,

Doug

Doug, Without going into great detail. The firepower of all batteries is based on 6/8 guns. When batteries have less they fire as if they had a casualty. 4...
