Russian Cossaques

The Russian Cossaque Regiments that are present in the game, in certain scenarios, are irregular cavalry. Based upon that premise, please apply the following series of adjustments to their use and interaction with other units within the structure of the game:  The Cossaques will check morale whenever an infantry formation which is not disordered or an artillery unit fires at the Cossaque, unless the Cossaque is in the woods. It does not require the result of a casualty to force the morale check.  The Cossaque in the woods would have to receive a casualty in order to check for morale. This is because the woods are much denser in this area.  The Cossaques may not charge formed infantry or unlimbered artillery into a front hexside of the enemy.  The most reasonable uses of the Cossaques are to work the edges of the battle and target disordered and routed elements as the morale challenged involuntarily move away from the main battle. Cossaques will also charge artillerie and infantrie from the rear or flank hexside. There are no Prussian Landwehr at this battle. These patriots will arrive after the armistice. (See La Bataille de Leipzig 1813) Silesian Schützen and other Prussian Jägers are volunteer troops that provided their own rifles, casting their own rifle or musket balls and are accurate marksman. Many were foresters from estates and wore dark green and black uniforms. Experts at concealment and tracking, they were the snipers of their day. The French Infantrie was a mixed composition of trained veterans; National Guard Cohorts and 60-day conscript (Provisoire) soldiers. The fire, melee, morale and Carre tables reflect this. The Provisoire infantrie is defined by any infantrie unit having a striped bottom on its counter. Provisoire legere infantry is defined as legere infantry that does not have a dark blue bottom to the counter. Provisoire ligne and legere may not form line. They may not form Carrre during an enemy charge Other Notable Troops Italien is represented by the Italien Infantrie; Velites of Turin and Florence; the Neapolitan troops and special cavalry regiments.

Cohort infantrie were National Guard formations raised in 1812 throughout France from both National Guard troops and Police forces. They may not form Carre during an enemy charge.

Marin infantrie is made up of sailors and coastal artillerists. Those troops were well trained and conducted themselves at a high level

The French Guard has a spectrum of experience and ability
