New player - playing Waterloo

Hello everybody,

I'm new here and got the Biltz address from JTS site as I was searching info about JTS games. I'm the happy owner of Waterloo Campaign. Fantastic game. Just started the full 4 days battle scenario [380 turns] from Charleroi to Mont St-Jean. I'm def not a grognard at JTS but I'm REALLY enjoying their games.

I'm focusing on Waterloo as French.

And I will soon be tempted to PBEM.

I have one question: as turns represent 10/15 minutes I guess that very often you press end turn without engaging any combat e.g. when positioning/manoeuvring units on the battlefield or even without moving any units (e.g. at night or before a battle, for example if you decide to start your offensive at let say 11:00.

Would that be correct in a PBEM ?

2nd question : which other Napoleonic game would you recommend between :
- Wellington peninsula
- Bonaparte's Peninsular War (and what dfference between these two spanish titles)
- Russia
- Eylau
- or any other I should buy ?

Thanks
