there are a lot of big campaigns that cover all 4-5 days of battle, and many hipotetical situation on a very big map; if you like monster game this is the title to get.
You'll find that the napoleonic period is covered very well by JTS.
If you want can check on this site too, there are a lot of friendly players that can help you with a training on this game.

Even though I'm heavily prefering the Russian Campaign because it is just so massive and complex I'm leaning towards buying Waterloo as potential first buy because I like the battle and it's a good first pick to learn the rules, but it seems to me the British defence would be rather static: staying on the ridge and keeping Hougemont and La Haye Sainte off the French's hands. Is there some level of randomness in the main campaign that provide uncertainty for the Allied player, for instance on the time the Blücher and von Bülow arrive on the flank?

That site seems pretty inactive, its announced tournaments on the main page date from years ago! Maybe it is because the forum is invisible to non-members?

Cool! :) Is it included or compatible with the JTS Store version?
