Hi Jean

Personally Marengo is my favourite title of all and Eckmuhl is also very good.
I think the Peninsular titles are a bit limited and have balance issues but others will no doubt disagree😉

I bought Republican Bayonets on the Rhine and Bautzen today so you are not alone hitting the purchase button !

Regarding most played of those three titles, the answer would be Marengo and Eckmuhl.

Eckmuhl has some large battlefields and interesting battles to fight. I do not have Marengo. I do have Wellingtons Peninsular War. I have played most of the scenarios, some against human opponents, and find them to all be heavily weighted against the French. A person of fair ability generally has a good chance to win as the Allies. The terrain is very difficult, I think the Spanish troops are way over rated and often victory conditions are based upon historical outcomes not necessarily what can be achieved with the game. It is a decent title if you play solo a lot as there are a number of solo scenario's that will really test your ability against the normally bad AI.
