Can anybody please point me to where I can get a full electronic order of battle for the armies involved in Campaigns on the Danube 1809?

there was no electronic OOB in 1809 [;)]

If you would like a detailed OOB for eth armies of 1809 then there are rather a lot of resources that can be searched and wiki has OOB's for many of the battles.

there is also the most excellent Nafziger Collection - now available free of charge at CARL - http://usacac.army.mil/cac2/cgsc/carl/nafziger.asp - this consists of transcriptions of period documents and has pretty much as much original information as exists!!

Thanks; I've figured this out--they block IPs from Russia...but nothing a VPN can't fix!

It's worth noting that you are not restricted to the initial OOB layout of the corps, units can be transferred between the corps and you could build any combination you want, within the limitation that they have to be able to march to the concentration area of each corps' objective, or they will become wandering souls trying to re-join.

Individual units can operate independently, when detached, and have their own objectives set.

Now with v3.04 , units can also be transferred to the Army Commander (Napoleon, or Charles) and could then act as a reserve (this is an addition which is not in the changelog).

The game is very flexible in the way that units can be organised. [:)]
