Thought that had been out for awhile .... I have it and enjoyed looking over the scenarios. I cant remember if the newer OB included the Prussians that were in Prussia and other parts of the kingdom at the time of the campaign. Having Kleist's corps is nice even if it was not one of their finest. |

I think it was out for HPS (now that I looked) it is at the top of the JTS page as new, so it must be new for that version... |

While it looks similar to the HPS pack there are some PDT files of the JTS pack that are from 2013 instead 2012 and they also differ in size and comparing their content reveals that some things were fixed(like negative values removed in the weather data, AFAIK negatives values don't work at all) and adjusted(% modifier to terrain was lowered considerably). Unlike with patches I think you can use the JTS pack on a HPS Installation as the different files only seem to be PDT files, that should still work no matter if HPS or JTS. |

Scott - I added in the ENTIRE 1815 Prussian army in the Campaign 1814 game. Look for the #107 Maneuver on the Marne scenario. If I missed a unit it was only because the sources I used missed it too. The brigades are organized in Treffes, not regiments as per the Waterloo game too, thanks to Warren Bajan and my sources. Also in the Campaign 1814 game was the last battle of the 1815 campaign - the Battle of La Soufre. I hope to add in a 1815 "Battle of Paris" scenario since the 1814 game has that map. This will be between the French and the Prussians (only). Big map, lots of forces, will add in the Paris militia and some auxiliary units too as were present in 1814. |

There are both scenario & PDT updates included, but yes, this can be used on the HPS or JTS versions. No major re-work, just an update that never got posted to the HPS site. |

Rich - I am guessing that the PDT files updated are not the ones that came with the game - those being updated in the updates ... right? The PDT files that got updated were older PDTs for custom scenarios? Not used to official PDT files being updated in a Expansion Pack ... |

I downloaded that one too Bill, liked it a lot too. I was saying Waterloo, as I had one time long ago added them into it and had hoped one day we'd see them in that game too. But no big deal, in the series now & that works....

@Bill Peters The whole Waterloo Expansion Pack is an addition and adds scenarios to original game, and so the updated PDT files are for these additional scenarios. |

And I sort of figured that reading the description ... ignore my questions, Rich! <SALUTE> |
