FRENCH ARMY : NOTES - Most French troops will be
average quality, with some rated as green, notably the provisional formations
such as divisions Puthod, Tharreau and Claparede. Massena's and Bernadotte's
corps should also probably fight as green. Wagram was a difficult battle for
the French, with many senior officers having to expose themselves to enemy fire
in order to keep their troops in order.
Ad hoc brigades which are composed of both line and light
units should behave the same as any French line regiment, with the ability to
send out one skirmish base for the entire brigade. Some French cavalry
divisions are so weak, that they must be represented here as brigades. Hence
the reason for such formations as "Brigade Lasalle."
