Peut importe les équipes ! Si 4v4 on adapte ?
Genre scénarisé, nations imposées ?
Très bonne idée Melet.
Et pourquoi on ne referait pas la bataille de Talavera en 4vs4 ?
En attaque: 3 divisions françaises, (2 d'infanteries et 1 de cavalerie qui représenteraient le I Corps de Victor) + 1 IV corps (Sebastiani)
vs
En défense: 2 divisions espagnoles (Cuesta) + 1 division Britannique + 1 corps expéditionnaire anglais (Wellesley)

Wellesley's British army consisted of four infantry divisions, three cavalry brigades and 30 cannon, totaling 20,641 troops.[4] The infantry included the 1st Division under John Coape Sherbrooke (6,000), the 2nd Division led by Rowland Hill (3,900), the 3rd Division commanded by Alexander Mackenzie (3,700) and the 4th Division (3,000) under Alexander Campbell. Henry Fane led a brigade of heavy cavalry (1,100), while Stapleton Cotton (1,000) and George Anson (900) commanded light cavalry brigades. There were three British (RA: Lawson, Sillery, Elliot) and two King's German Legion (KGL) batteries (Rettberg, Heise) with six guns apiece.
Cuesta's Spanish army of 35,000[9] was organized into five infantry and two cavalry divisions, plus about 30 artillery pieces, some 12lb guns. The 28,000 infantry were in José Pascual de Zayas y Chacón's 1st Division (7 battalions) and Vanguard (5 battalions), Iglesias's 2nd Division (8 battalions), Portago's 3rd Division (6 battalions), Manglano's 4th Division (8 battalions) and Juan Procopio Bassecourt y Bryas's 5th Division (7 battalions). Henestrosa and the Duke of Albuquerque led the 6,000 horsemen of the 1st and 2nd Cavalry Divisions and there were 800 artillerymen.
