I really enjoy the company level scenarios in the WDS Waterloo campaign by Rich White. What other titles have good company level battles?

I can't recall off hand, but I think Waterloo is the only one. I also agree they are fun ones to play!

Actually, there are a LOT of other Napoleonic titles with company level scenarios in the NB series. Here are the ones I worked on that contain them:

1. Campaign Wagram
2. Campaign Bautzen - an entire campaign (The Finnish War of 1808-09) uses company level scale - add in several scenarios that Rich White worked on as well.
3. Campaign Austerlitz
4. Campaign Leipzig
5. Campaign 1814
6. Campaign Eylau-Friedland
7. Campaign Eckmuhl

I note that Rich White included company level scenarios for both Peninsular titles.

I used Ultra Edit to search for the word "company" in .scn (scenarios) files and got 509 hits. Remember that the Legacy folders also have scenarios in them. Thus the large number.

Republican Bayonets on the Rhine, Campaign Marengo and Campaign Jena-Auerstaedt did not have any company level scenarios. For Marengo: I could see a good set of company level scenarios for the attacks on the Marengo village as well as Desaix's counterattack. I am sure many other of the scenarios in all of those titles could be added as well. I lack detailed accounts for much of the battles in RBR to do that. The others are well-documented but I like the time or interest to do any more work on the games.
