I had a link but have lost it – it was to a diagram of a French battalion deployed in line showing where every NCO, officer etc. was located. I'm thinking of doing a display piece of an entire battalion in as close to 1:1 as I can get it…

Anyone have a link to such a diagram handy?

Have you got a copy of Adkin's Waterloo Companion? p195

There's this site: link

It's a wealth of information too, though a little bit biased toward the Polish/French. That particular page I like has the diagram for French line companies and battalions, as well as neat diagrams like the procedure for deploying into line from column etc.

Oh look, we both thought of the same thing! Yeah there also seems to be 2 seperate mirrors, napoleonistyka.atspace.com and web2.airmail.net, and the napoleonistyka mirror seems to have a lot of broken links (the one to the Austrian pages, in particular).

e: Actually that one that I have linked up there seems to be a third page by the same author, and the more complete of the three in fact. Here's the same page on the newer domain link
