If anyone finds an action that occured that they think should have been included in the Campaign Austerlitz game please note it here or email me.
Here are the guidelines:
1. Date, place (if you can give me a modern name - its easier to find on topo maps of today) and who fought against who.
2. It cannot be from Italy. Digital map data of Italy right now is limited to just Google Earth which gives scant information for building these maps.
3. I already decided not to cover the action between Murat and the Allies prior to Austerlitz. I would have to use Google Earth to map the area and frankly the OB on the action is scant (Digby-Smith has a list but not much else for me to go on).
4. It must be balanced to a certain extent. I passed on most situations in Digby-Smith's book that where the sides were lopsided. Three scenarios I did are borderline impossible to win as the Allies: Memmingen, Neresheim and Herbrechtingen. They are examples of scenarios I do not want to create. I added them in just to depict the actions of Ferdinand trying to break out (the last two) and two are a fictious event (Memmingen never happened and at Neresheim the Austrians capitulated).
If you think I passed up on a good action let me know. If its in Digby-Smith's book let me know what page number if you have his work.
