Are the OBs historical OBs (with historical numbers) or are they OBs designed for use with the rules?

"Are the OBs historical OBs (with historical numbers) or are they OBs designed for use with the rules?"

The OBs are based on historical numbers but are designed for the rules. Thus the number of men represented by a figure varies from scenario to scenario. Beware, at least one of the scenarios is completely wrong in its geographical orientation.
