Borodino satellite map and historical deployment.

[Jacquinot]

This is my first sattelite map of my favorite Borodino battlefield with historical deployment of troops on 5.30 am. Special thanks to Alfiere and JMM for help in creation.

Hi Jaquinot,
I downloaded the version BorodinoHist7. When I play only the french is see russian units, but in a big square behind the redoubts. When I play russian side, they are correctly deployed already in the redoubts. When I play on the french side, russian units move but not into the redoubts but between them. Can yôu perhaps correct this somehow? - I don't know how actually.

Hello Oho,

What you describ is not an anomaly, Jacquinot can not do anything about it. You can go to this topic to better understand

Yes its necessary problem because AI have special limits of deployment area and river deployment in map editor, when i create this scenari im used special code. If you want play on one side only you can start game in "command both sides" regime and after that in game you can open options and chose command La Grand arme or Allies.

At all im create this scenari and map for play in "command both sides" regime for play with historical orders during the battle, AI cant give historical orders. Im play this battle with historical orders and have historical result draw 1:1 and French side have more loss than Russians its strange because all French historians wrote aboute small French losses and big Russian losses.

I really like the map and the scenario. Can you perhaps post the initial comands of the russian side by screenshot. I can use command both sides,  then enter your initial russian comands - and then switch to comand the french side only. Maybe that is a good compromise because the french are the attackers. Thanks.

You can download my save file in depot, all battle at 6.00 to 18.00 with historical orders for both sides.

And you must know 1 important thing - we still dont have truthful version of Borodino battle, different Russian and French historic sources give very different information about duration of fighting on Bagrations fleches, time of beginning attack on Grand redoubt and many other.
