Hi,
Excuse me for English intrusion, (in alternativa potevo usare l'italiano!:w00t

.
AFAIK, the combact losses issue has been already debated in the past: with some modding to codes from PhilThib, too!
Anyway I guess losses are definitely till excessive!
A good statistical report over losses on Napoleon's battles has been included In D. Chandler book The Campaigns of Napoleon. But overal losses he reports the
% of losses over men involved......
That's could be a good parameter to evaluate NCP combat losses, rather than absolute losses.
I could post some data as regard......
I guess this discussion should go to the main, English, NCP page.
Pocus planned to return over NCP engine at some point in early 2009: collecting data from game session and offering suggestions could be useful to boost up NCP improvements.
BTW, I already posted some ideas to reduce cavalry losses:

I have plan to post some others, grabbed from Napoleonic Battles boardgame tables and rules.
Sorry again for use of English
