Hello
Really interested in your campaign I am starting up after lockdown, a campaign starting in spring 1794 Flanders
I am using heavily amended Scharnhorst rules as you group favour Blucher
Which I have had also to amend for fighting in the Revolution
I hope you could let me know both the campaign and Wargame rules you are using for this unique and interesting period
Keep safe
