Hey gents, not sure if anyone has seen this link but it has a vast list of OOBs. The link is https://www.napoleon-series.org/resources/the-nafziger-collection-of-napoleonic-orders-of-battle/#1600852693057-7ba92b48-af3a

I’m hoping to try and dissect the oobs and see if I can try and make my own OOBs based on some of these. I feel like it would be great combined with the scenario generator to come up with some great battles. Not sure how hard it is to make your own OOBs. But I’m gonna give it a go.

Be careful with Nafziger. He trawled through many original documents but simply copied down what he found without doing many (if any) checks, so there are many errors... just be aware of that. Otherwise Nafziger's work is a good resource. I used his lists for my 1808 Peninsular campaign but got caught by many duplicate entries in different armies at the same time but different locations.

I am starting to see that going through them. Now if I can only figure out how to come up with my own OOBs. I’d love to join in on a campaign when ever another one is started. I think the peninsular wars are my favorite campaign of the napoleonic wars. That had to of been a fun time!
