Battle of Waterloo timeline
The battle commences with the French initiating their moves. In the 12th turn, General Picton perishes while leading his troops, leaving the Allies temporarily with one fewer field general to guide their forces. At turn 20, Field Marshal Blucher arrives with his troops from the east via the fields of Papelotte farm on the Allied left and the woods and surroundings of Plancenoit village, deploying 4 units of choice per turn until the entire Prussian army enters the battlefield. In an exciting twist, the alternative timeline features Marshal Grouchy and his troops arriving at turn 27, supporting Napoleon's right flank through the woods and village of Plancenoit.

Deployment
Both sides deploy units within their own deployment zones, which are the first 2 vertical squares starting from the border of the map. Within this zone units can be deployed on fields, buildings, and woods. Commanders can use four action points per turn to move their units within their respective ranges. Once the units move into action range or the opponent, the actual battle begins. On the Anglo-Allied side, the farms of Hougoumont to the right (4-6 units), La Haye Sainte (2 units) in the center and the farm of Papelotte (2 units) on the left can be occupied with infantry, however the commander can decide for tactical reasons not to occupy the farms.
