Sorry if I've been a bit long, but I'm perplexed about this battle limit!!

quote:

3.3 Battle Limits
Terrain limits the number of units that can participate in a battle. The basic limit is 22 units per side, both of which modify their limit by:
+1 for defending forces•
+0 to 3 random bonus•
-1 per difficulty level for AI-controlled forces•
-2 for weather in province•
-3 in winter (Nov-Mar)•
-5 if the force crossed a river•
For AI side, +1 per difficulty level above 1•
Plus the worst terrain all the player’s forces crossed while entering the province, including central terrain, modifies this limit by:
-5 for Forest•
-8 for Marsh•
-10 for Mountains•
The limit is never less than 6.
Reinforcements – Units forced out of battle by battle limits become automatic reinforcements; they will enter the battle at a later time, if it lasts long enough. Reinforcement is explained in more detail in the combat sections below.
Additional reinforcements may be called into a battle, in excess of the battle limit, but only by a small amount. Some reinforcements may be denied if their entry onto the battlefield would cause their player’s forces to exceed the battle limit by too large an amount.

Best way to organize Corps in my opinion is 3-4 divisions of infantry per Corps, 1 of those light or jager or Guards if you have them, 1 artillery, 1 cavalry, normal or if available light or lancers. I also like one of the infantry to have an engineer attachment upgrade but that is for purposes of a siege, although it does have some effect in detailed combat as well IIRC.

If you are France and have the 7 division Corps and the available units, might add another Infantry to that total.

A reserve artillery Corps and a cavalry Corps should be 3-4 artillery for the artillery Corps and 3-4 Cavalry, 1-2 being heavy and 1 horse artillery.

If you have an Army organized in this way it makes it harder to get only guns and cavalry or only cavalry and infantry. You should be able to get a bit of each.

Thanks all for your instruction!
And I have in project a scenario for 1809: the beginning of Peninsular War in Spain with the Wagram Campaign in Austria. I have detailed OOB and Organization for France, Great Britain , Spain, Portugal (in British Service), Prussia, Austria. Do u think the armies for Russo-Swedish war of 1808 are good enough to for a Campaign in 1809? And what about Ottoman Empire.
