Re: Napoleonic Units
As Sanscullote is well out of the range of Napoleonic "units", maybe Guerrillero would suit me better.

Re: Napoleonic Units
I'd opt for Engineer / Artillery.

Re: Napoleonic Units
I like the line infantry. Lowly foot soldiers that take the brunt of the fighting! Probably not as skilled as other foot infantry, but definately useful on the battlefield!

Re: Napoleonic Units
I would join the grenadiers as we would be where things would be decided on the battlefield. Maybe the Guards later if i would survive long enough to qualify.

Re: Napoleonic Units
Depends which army I'd be in. In the French army the Imperial Guard would be best. Higher pay, better training, far less fighting required. If I were in any of the Allied armies it would probably be the Grenadiers... pretty much for the same reasons.
Rest in Peace TosaInu, the Org will be your legacy
Re: Napoleonic Units
If it were any of the coalition armies, I'd want to be anything with light equipment. That way I can run really fast before the invincible Gauls.
If I were in the French legions, any unit whose uniform has lots of fur, so I won't freeze to death in Russia.
Re: Napoleonic Units
I'd rather be the guy firing cannister shot, than being the guy walking/riding in front of cannister shot... so I'm going with Arty.

Voted "other", but really meant "none of the above". It's fine to fantasize with good wargames, but I'd really, really, rather not fight in anyone's war.
