Maps

I've collected a few maps over the past year.

The plan is to run a campaign or campaigns in some of the principle theatres of operations of the French Revolutionary Wars.

That includes maritime Flanders; the Sambre-Muese region of Belgium; the Rhineland and Italy. I appreciate these were not the only areas where fighting occured but these are the ones that interest me for now.

The first image is of a map developed for a game based on the 100 Days Campaign of 1815 but which would do nicely for campaign in 1793-94:


Secondly, several maps of the Low Countries, Central France, Germany and Italy; all in the same style, from Malcolm McCallum's excellent series here.

Central France

 Italy
 Low Countries
 Northern Germany
Southern Germany


My intention is to use the very simple preliminary map movement system in Phil Barker's 'Horses, Foot and Guns' rules (suitably adapted for a different scale - of which more anon). These maps won't fit this system and will require some adaptation but nothing that is insurmountable I feel (and hope...).
