There are plenty of sources for re-fighting Marlborough's great victories and I see some new books are being published on the Spanish campaigns. But I think it would be interesting to game the exploits of Baden verses the French Marshals, especially Villars. Can somebody suggest a source?

There are a series of articles in the Pike and Shot society's magazine 'Arquebusier' that cover the 1702 and 03 campaigns. These are in Vol 28/6, 29/1, 29/2, 29/4,29/5, 30/1, 30/5, 31/3 and 31/4. There might be 1 or 2 more. Contact the society about back issues if you are interested – pikeandshotsociety.org |

If you read German (and Fraktur), there are two volumes online of Ludwig Wilhelm's own writings during and about the war (Kriegs- und Staatsschriften des Markgrafen Ludwig Wilhelm von Baden ueber den spanische Erbfolgekrieg): |
