I would also like to find that scenario, in any form. I just ordered an 1806 Prussian Army DAS! We will show that upstart Napoleon! ... well... at least we...
Hi I actually did do a Jena (which I think may be the one AUSWar ended up with - although I can't be certain as it was 7 years ago.) I will try and did it up...
Hi It was very tough for a Frenchman to survive under the old scenario of Auerstadt. However under Naps BAttles 2 scenario Brunswick gets it in the eyes at 9am...

Hello David, Our group has played the Auerstadt scenario before, but without the automatic removal of Brunswick. Once the single French cavalry unit was...
HI I live in Canberra and I currently have an 1813 Prussian, 1812 French, 1812 Saxon and am finishing off an 1806 Prussian Army. Are there any players of...
Sounds like a good plan. Just because a commander was killed historically, doesn't mean you have to do that in your game. Do you automatically remove Lannes...
First, take my comments with just a pinch of salt as I don't have the rules in front of me and I have not played them in years. Nevertheless I do remember that...
... Miranda of S&T had numerous conversations on this one and concluded it simply to be a design problem inherent in using command radius as the primary C2...
Oooh. I like that. Any one have pointers to a Jena scenario? Michael Brown <mailto:mwsaber6@...> mwsaber6@... _____ From: napsbattles@yahoogroups.com...
Morning Garry I am a Canberran. Where do you live and what armies do you have? Being the flagellant I am I prefer playing with my 1806 Prussians (at the moment...
Yes but Auerstadt is a special case. Without Brunswick taking the bullet (literally between the eyes) its not a a very fun game for the French, even with the...
Morning Yeh its tough but is it oh so nice to play at least once as the Prussians. In 1805-07 campaigns and competitions My Prussians get hammered so badly by...
Sir You have hit the nail on the head. With Blucher's command initiative of 8 (and range of 5") he can hair of to Speilberg and get around the French flank...
Other rules? Empire (I do not play this game BTW) had a specifically defined list of orders for corps and divisions to use. Each order was very precise in what...
I think I told this time ago... I used for this battle two rules: Prussian combined attacks of cavalry and infantry are forbidden and they cannot fire two or...
Obviously Clausewitz, CGSC and a host of others have a different opinion on the command-control issue, but I think your modifications are nonetheless spot on...
You touched on the bigger problem, although indirectly. The Prussian Amry was a good army, but had a command structure that was 50 years out of date. They...
If you are playing the Prussian side, tell Hohenlohe to march northeast a few miles, very fast. Confront the French AFTER you consolidate with Brunswick. ...
That's just the point. The whole concept of simulation gaming is the "What If" possibility. If you are going to do something with the rules, so the battle...
If you are looking to achieve historical realism I think you will need to sift though the previous suggestions. If you just want to balance the scenario a...
That was Marshal Twitness, Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte and your recommendation certainly is a novel idea. Pete Panzeri has asked me to run an AOE game on...
Guys Before you start hammering the Prussians just so Auerstadt works the way you think it should remember that in a straight up game the Prussians have a very...
I think I like the idea of lowering all of the Prussian command spans, then. It would help prevent the good cooperation that can win a battle. Only being able...
Gentlemen, Thank you all, for your comments regarding the Battles of Jena and Auerstadt. I appreciate your insight and suggestions. Special thanks go to...
Wow guys.....clip your posts! This was one of the most annoying digests yet, with simple responses, yet with miles of appended discussion.....most of which...
