The Final Fall Of Napoleon: Waterloo 1815

[KillerMongoose]

I've got all of the names committed to memory by now Mr. Duuring. 

[Davout]

Whats the difference between this and NW apart from the Dutch being added and no Russians and Austrians?

Good point

[KillerMongoose]

To be honest I don't even know, I just want to make sure the Dutch/Belgians are done right

all british units will have Belgic Shakos and some will have covers. French units will be modified for Waterloo appearance. German States Minor Factions will consist of units from obviously different german states that participated in the 100 days. Prussian units will be given new names and a Waterloo design along with the Dutch of course with the help of history from the 2 good Dutchies on this thread

[Duuring]

Killermongoose isn't Dutch. He likes to pretend he's pseudo-Dutch (Also known as 'Belgian'), but he is, in fact, nothing more then a dirty Yank.

[KillerMongoose]

Love you too Duuring. And no, I'm not a Yank, I'm a colonist. Difference. And almost my entire family is Belgian and small tidbits of Dutch so I happily consider myself more lowlander than Yank. Plus, interestingly enough, I live in the "lowlands" part of Ohio which was - interestingly enough - settled by Germans who's descent goes all the way back to the Netherlands and Flanders. (Long story, don't want to take this too off-topic)

But yeah, me and Duuring have talked about a Dutch faction thousands of times and I could tell you what units would be good. In fact I could type this list now in like 5 minutes xD

[Willhelm]

Ugh.. Americans and their ancestry claims.

Considering America has only been around for 200 years and most American families haven't even been in America for that long, there's nothing wrong with acknowledging your ancestry. In fact for most people it should be a source of pride. And you really can't say that you're fully American unless you're a Native American (and no, 2% Cherokee doesn't count)

Changed some stuff. The 2nd Nassau was officially known as the 'Regiment van Nassau-Usingen' but everybody just called it the 2nd Nassau light infantry. The 'Vrijwillige Jagers' did not necessarily use rifles. They arrived late for the campaign and are first mentioned on the 12th of June. As a result of being so late, they didn't change their weapons to the standard Brown bess, which meant they used a variety of guns brought from home - over ten different calibers were used. Interesting unit by the way. They counted 172 men and 5 officers - With ten horses. They were only present at Quatre-bras where they fired away 1.418 shots, which comes down to 8 rounds a man - Which, in comparison, isn't that much. They took one man killed, 5 minor wounded and 11 missing.

On their name: The chief of staff refers to them on the 12th of June as 'een compagnie Nassausche Vrijwillige jagers' and after that simply 'de compagnie vrijwillige jagers'.
