REPUBLIQUE
GRAND-TACTICAL NAPOLEONIC WARFARE IN MINIATURE



Leader Ratings

This list of period commanders and how some of their values might be expressed in Republique is provided here as a rough guide for game play. Beneath most sections are additional lists of officers whose careers are not so well known, but who, lacking any other direct knowledge, should at least be the national average for officers of that level. Readers who have particular insights into these officers or others not listed here should feel free to change the leader values as needed for game play. Also, commander class could possibly change from week to week; a normally energetic leader might have a period of P or D behavior.

For most of the conservative armies of this period, officer values may have been slightly reduced in order to represent the often splintered nature of high command, as well as the use of temporary high level formations which, due to their short existence, did not exhibit the tight divisional cooperation seen in the more progressive armies of the period. In some cases, the lower values are also an expression of the poor logistical support offered to some troops, which resulted in predictable morale and control problems among otherwise good troops.

The lowest level leaders able to be used in Republique are divisional level generals or their equivalents. The next level above divisional leaders will be corps or column/wing commanders. Above these will be army commanders and/or commanders in chief as well as national leaders. In the tables below, if only one column supplies values for officers, we have not yet been able to establish if their abilities varied enough over time to justify changed ratings. Republique players who have particular insights into the various armies are encouraged to let us know where these numbers can be fine-tuned.
