Post subject:  Terms help
Okay, I'm needing a little help. I could probably find this info myself, but it would take some time.

I'm creating some scenarios for Jena-Auerstadt which means I'm building my oob files. hehehe...

Not to give too much away, but I'd like some of the following terms in French, German and Russian. I'll be using them for unit labels, and will only have 19-21 characters to work with, that's the challenge.

Here goes...

CAMP FOLLOWERS
RGT HEADQUATERS
BN HEADQUARTERS
CAMP GUARDS
PICQUETS
SICK
STRAGGLERS
BN BAGGAGE
RGT BAGGAGE
GENDARMES
STAFF
MUNITION TRAINS

... for the last one, I have the French actual organization titles, train d'Artillerie, I am wanting to find out what the Russians, Austrians, Prussians, and Saxons called their munition trains, or the elements that supported the artillery.

I'll be working on this project throughout August, but would really like the info as soon as possible. You can post here, or send me an email albert_amos@yahoo.com .

If I get the scenarios done and posted before I find usable terms, I'll update my oob files, and re-post.

I think y'all might enjoy one or two of these little battles.
