There is some discrepancy between the units on the map, the listed reinforcements, and the total of units listed in the colored area (grey/blue background).
There are no Bavarian Cheveauleger on the map, there are 2 listed, but only one in the reinforcement list.
There are 4 Prussian Line Infantry on the map, there are 9 listed, there are 7 in the reinforcement list.
