The dark and fog was intended as the battle was fought in december on a very foggy day.

I'd really like to see you do a Battle of Borodino - September 7th 1812 image with the well know image of French Infantry charging the Artillery nests.

It's normal TF2 models. I create the soldiers by reshaping and recoloring miscs and items. But i plan on making tutorials of how to make them.

The picture. Oh well. I worked on this for some 3 hours but i thought the map i chose was too bad and was not happy with the posing so i started from scratch on another map. Then i dunno. Worked on it for some 11 hours in a 2 day period. What you see is 3 pics in one. Due to lagging i made 3 sections of the pic individually and then merged them together post editing.

LONG LIVE NAPOLEON! LONG LIVE FRANCE! LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE!
If only he could have pull off the same victory at Leipzig. (Which he could have. French forces almost capture both the Tsar and the king of Prussia just before the battle, as well as their heads of staff.)

By leipzig napoleon was fighting a losing war. neither he not his army was in the shape they were before invading russia. Not even Bonaparte could walk off the loss of 600000 soldiers,

But if he had capture Alexander and Friedrich Wilhelm (The political and military heads of Russia and Prussia), he would have beheaded the Coalition and if he had pull a Austerlitz at the Battle of Nations, the Coalition would have collapsed. It would be Napoleon's Miracle of the House of Brandenburg.
In that case....
First, Prussia probably will be dismembered altogether and Friedrich Wilhelm given some small island to rule (as lighthouse keeper). Russia can't just be dismembered, but some "goodies" can be carved out and either be given semi-independent vassal status or given to loyal allies in exchange for sending the Tsar back.
Bernadotte will be finished everywhere but in hell and it will be very interesting who will be offered the Throne of Sweden. Frederik VI of Denmark-Norway had been mentioned before Bernadotte, but I doubt Napoleon would like one Monarch in charge of the Baltic entrances again - vassal or not. Sweden will have to give up Finland (independence?) and probably hand over Jämtland and Pommerania to Denmark-Norway.
Poland is going to be big and fat on all the Russian and Prussian goodies fed to her.
In Germany Saxony will be on steroids and being Bavaria will be almost as bad business as being Prussia.
Austria probably will be allowed to survive in some "close-cut" form, Francis after all is father-in-law, but will be told to sod off from anything outside the border to the Ottomans.
The attention of the Grande Armee will go to Spain, which of course is bad news for the British presence there as there is an acute shortage of new coalitions vs. Napoleon in Europe. Napoleon is likely to initiate an ambitious naval build-up.
When Napoleon dies the French hegemony of course will be very vulnerable, especially if it is combined with some kind of German national rise under a Bolivar type. OTOH any French ruler with a basic idea of ruling should be able to crush such an uprising, he will after all have a lot of allies in the German Monarchs. Germany might be an unruly place however for some decades to come.
