Good Starting Game in the Napoleonic Series?

RE: Good Starting Game in the Napoleonic Series?
I'm completely new at JTS games (but obviously not hex based wargames) and I picked Waterloo for my first game. Mostly because of my interest in this battle and the context. And I'm enjoying the game a lot ! But my guess is that all JTS Napo games are equally good. My second buy will be Russia, for the same reason.
Maybe you could start to watch some good documentary film about Napoleon's reign to get a better feel of the multiple wars at this time. Understanding that Napoleon was the son of the French revolution and that all European crowns hated him because of that. Especially the Brits who setup several coalitions against France to try to bring back monarchy in France. They eventually won.
Knowing a bit history opens the eyes on this fascinating era and IMO helps to enjoy these great games.
