Hi

My Egyptian Campaign scenario will cover the British invasion and should run to 1801 now that I know the system will take in game changes in the uniforms of units and can therefore support the changes the French Army in Egypt made during the period.

As I want the do separate unit portraits down to Regimental level so guess the work is going to take me some time, however wonder if anybody had considered thing the Free 1848 game as the basis for a mod. I had book looking to do one for the proposed “Black Powder Wars” game before that project was absorbed into the re-launch of the Horse & Musket series. I got as far as getting the permission of Hussar Games to borrow and modify some of their graphics files, so if they are approached politely they might be receptive to a similar request for “Napoleons Campaigns”.

Which Russo-Turkish war ?
Because they were numerous (nearly a dozen) ; for example those around NCP period are : (1768–1774) ; (1787–1792) ; (1806–1812).
For the one in NCP period (1806-1812 ) , I found very difficult to have accurate OOBs especially because of the poor knowledge the Ottomans leaders have themselves concerning their own army...
If you have some OOBs, could you share them with us ? (Except Battin, 1810, which is the most well known engagement).

Then, following the Russo-Turkish war of 1812, you can go to the Second Seb uprising which will lead to Greek independance several years later.

Russo-Turkish War (1806–1812)

Thu Nov 22, 2007 2:42 pm

Dear,

The war broke out in 1805–1806 against the background of the Napoleonic wars. The Ottoman Empire, encouraged by the Russian defeat at Austerlitz, deposed the Russophile hospodars of its vassal states Moldavia (Alexandru Moruzi) and Wallachia (Constantine Ypsilanti). Simultaneously, their French allies occupied Dalmatia and threatened to penetrate the Danubian principalities at any time. In order to safeguard the Russian border against a possible French attack, a 40,000-strong Russian contingent advanced into Moldavia and Wallachia. The Sultan reacted by blocking the Dardanelles to Russian ships and declared war on Russia.

The russian comandants of the war are Mikhail Miloradovich, Count Gudovich Dmitry Senyavin, Alexander Alexandrovich Prozorovsky, prince Bragation.
Nikolay Mikhailovich Kamensky.
The Turkish commander is Ahmet Pasha.

Yes, I know this text but unfortunately, it doesn't give accurate informations about OOBs... :p leure:

Here is another extract :

"Initially, the tsar was reluctant to concentrate large forces against Turkey while his relations with Napoleonic France were still uncertain and the main part of his army was occupied fighting against Napoleon in Prussia. A massive Ottoman offensive aimed at Bucharest was promptly checked at Obilesti by as few as 4,500 soldiers commanded by Mikhail Miloradovich (June 2, 1807). In Armenia, the 7,000-strong contingent of Count Gudovich destroyed the Turkish force of 20,000 at Arpachai (June 18). In the meantime, the Russian Navy under Dmitry Senyavin blockaded the Dardanelles and destroyed the Ottoman Fleet in the Battle of the Dardanelles and Battle of Athos, thus establishing Russian supremacy on sea."

OOBs are very difficult to find especially naval OOBs, like Athos.

One of the toughest (almost impossible) problem to solve is 'Peace'...without a diplomatic engine, a beaten Austria in 1805 would remain at war for instance, due to current engine limitation...scripting peace is a nightmare...

I would say that your observation is more correct than you imagine.......
