Kingdom of Würtemberg, 1809





This is my Army of the Kingdom of Württemberg for the Napoleonic period. I chose the German campaign in 1809 in spite of a choice of troops less varied and therefore less interesting, simply because I had a preference for the uniforms of that time compared to those of the later period (1812-1813 )

The troops correspond to the categories of the DBA 1500-1900 extension. On the other hand, in our game group we adapted the depth of some bases in order to obtain a visual that satisfied us more.

The battle order does not pretend to reproduce a precise battle but generally respects the Württemberg OdBs during this epic. The regiments represented were chosen not for their presence at a particular battle but to vary the colors of the bouncing.

The distinctive colors of the regiments are different according to the reference works. Since it is necessary to decide and I am not a specialist in Napoleonic uniformology, I have opted for the distinctive ce lien.
