Of course, Cavalry units tended to be smaller than infantry organization . . . perhaps nto 40%-50% of an infantry battalion, but smaller none the less.

In general, I rationalize the game on a 1/10 scale, with each unit in game represent 1 Regiment/2 Battalions, or 2 Batterys of artillery. Using that scale, you can work out that 1-4 unit represent a brigade, and a full stack is about 2-4 divisions.

Of course, the logic breaks down a little in American theater (as at a 1/10 scale about 1.5 stacks would represent the maximum manpower committemnt of any the European powers to that theater, yet we generally require 2-3 times that much to handle the various Indian nations, but it works out quite nicely in the European theater).

For example, say you wanted to recreate the French III Corps [one of the smaller corps] from Waterloo in one stack. It would work out to:

1 General
12 Line Infantry [or 11 Line Infantry, and 1 Grendadier]
1 Light Infantry
3 Chasseurs â Cheval
1 Foot Artillery
1 Howitzer
1 Horse Artillery
