  Re your request for Napoleonic data for wargamming.  I'll have to go dig
  in my stuff for some specifics.  I've got some rules for "Frappe", 
  "Napoleonique", and "Empire" - I'll gather the data on sources, title,
  etc.  Is this a board game - or miniatures?

  As far as source material on history - just about anything by David Chandler
  will be helpful.

   Difficult, since most Napoleonics are at the level of battalion/regiment.
   You might want to recreate the battle for Hougomont (Waterloo) with the
   Light Companies of the Coldstream Guards.  Just a suggestion.

  
   Sketchy response, I know, but you've asked for a tremendous amount of
   information - tell me what battle you'd like to recreate - and I can
   get you some source material, rules, tactics, and order of battle.
