SCENARIO MATERIAL: Finland, 1808-1809

Order of Battle

Swedish Forces

All infantry and Jaegerbattalions have 20 figures each. The lifebattalions are the regiments elite, and can be considered Grenadiers, whereas the reserve battalions have lower morale and worse equipment than line battalions. The militia can probably safely be considered to be half jaegers (this due to the fact that they mostly brought their own weapons, usually hunting rifles), but with lower morale.

The Finnish jaegers don't all have rifles, probably only the Nyland Jaegerbatalion has rifles, while the others don't.

Russian Forces

Every infantry battalion has 24 figures (the actual strength in men would make it 23 figures, but this doesn't go too well with forming a coherent battalion...). As can be seen, info on the Russians is a bit sketchy. I don't know whether these two-battalion regiments had a grenadier regiment and a musketeer regiment, or just two musketeerregiments. The composition of the artillery is my guesswork only (the only things I know are the number of guns and that they only had 6- and 9-pdrs), so this might change considerably with more research.

The city names in brackets after each division are the deployment areas of each division in the beginning of hostilities.
