Then I had to go through and redo all the pom poms and plumes so their companies match correctly.
Se here we are. My 1st French Infantry Division at 1:15 ratios.
All my French Divisions are based on 2 x Brigades of 2 x Regiments with each Regiment having 3 x Battalions at paper strength of 720men. This is then adjusted for historical refights or combined for the larger Brigades in Russia. Pretty flexible. 1 x Regiment is always Legere (light infantry).
The Legere regiment leads with 1 battalion in line and 2 battalions in column of attack in support. Behind those are the 2nd regiment from the 1st Brigade and then the 2nd Brigade in column or march.
A Legere battalion in line
A line battalion in column of attack, 2 companies wide
A battery of 8 guns
A foot artillery piece and crew in action
2nd Brigade marching up in column of march
On to the 2nd Division now and then jump into a Cavalry Division.

Very nice. Well done.
I've been following your blog for sometime and must say your inspired me to finally paint up the box of 6mm Naps I have in the lead pile.
One of my main gripes with Empire was the smallness of the battalions, they never looked quite right to me, purely a personal taste issue but important to me all the same. Thanks for renewing mt interest in these rules and figure scale.
