Artillery

IT must be remembered that the interpretation of Bob Cordery's big-battle Napoleonic rules I am using for refighting Waterloo is at the corps level.

So individual units, with the arguable exception of Wellington and Napoleon and their staffs, are not represented.

This means there are no infantry battalions or cavalry squadrons, except in as much as they are represented at the division level.

Similarly there are no artillery batteries - at least not ordinary ones - but the rules do make provision for a grand battery, which was a French speciality where as many guns as reasonably possible were gathered into a single massed battery.
