How did you determine the time for messages to be delivered? I assume it was at least the road delay between tables, did you add some time for crossing tables?

What were the odds of the messages from Massena slipping through the siege lines? If massenas troops had NOT marched out with their arms would be they out of the campaign? Or reduced numbers/effectivess/delay as they get rearmed?

Great stuff. I thought that your decissions which parts of the French armies to reflect on the table top just perfect.

I myself fought Marengo in 2000 as a Young guy at Marengo (at the head of the famous column of Dessaix) in the uniform of the 9e demi-brigade d'infanterie légère. Dessaix was killed next to this unit in the heat of the battle as it was painted by Lejeune on the famous painting from 1802.

Cheers!

Looked like a fun time for sure.
Also, looked like there were various types of basing for the troops, which I'm assuming they are based for different sets of rules out there?

Almost all of the troops in the video were based for Age of Eagles (1"x3/4" for infantry) or in a few cases, Napoleon's Battles (1"x1").

Ah yeah. Napoleon's Battles. My first foray into that era of gaming. Quite enjoyable for sure. I just got into ESR (Est Sans Resultant) which is also a good set of rules. Hopefully we get to see more Napoleonic warfare in season 2 :D

Enjoyed another video and the material, you seem to have a good group and a lot of fun.
I generally have to run most all games where our group meets, the material here will help me more easily setup and play some of these battles. Bought the Altar of Freedom rules and Eastern scenarios and down loaded the other freebies and buying complete 6mm Union and Reb armies

Those 5 maps look great and any one of them could be the basis for an interesting wargame in the horse and musket period.

Thanks for sharing all the detailed work you do - it's really inspiring.

How were casualties from a battle reflected in unit strength for subsequent battles?

How was victory in the campaign determined?
