New Campaign Maps

Military Regions and Districts in Germany

The main reason for reorganising the 1813 campaign was to allow me to introduce a higher level of command and direction.   Until now each campaign phase was stand alone and had no real influence on the one which went before, or the one which would come next.   I want to introduce a new system which overcome this.

This is a simplified map of Germany.    Each square is a military district, and will also be a wargames table.   Nine of the maps (outlined in red) will be a military region.  

On this map Germany has been divided into 9 regions and 80 districts.

Each region has nine districts and, each take the name of the town or city they contain.   The region takes its name from the largest city.   For example the region on the top right is called Berlin Region, because it contains the city of Berlin.   This is also the main supply depot for the region.

At present Germany is divided into three campaign areas, each containing one French and one allied army.   This will remain the same

On this map the top three lines are north Germany.   1^st French army is at Arnhem and the Prussian army at Berlin

The centre three lines are central Germany.   2^nd French army are at Dusseldorf, the Russian army at Dresden.

Bottom three lines are southern Germany.   3^rd French army is at Strasbourg, the Austrian army in Dresden.

Military Regions and Districts in Spain

Spain has also been divided into military regions and districts.  There are 7 regions and 54 districts.

When the campaign opens the French will control 5 of those 7 regions.  

The Spanish are at Santiago and 4^th French army at Burgos

The British at Lisbon and 5^th French army at Madrid.
