I'm not a great Napoleonic fan but these were done for a customer and I must admit that they made me think that 1:1 figure scale wasn't quite the daft idea that I at first thought. The unit strengths had to be 'adjusted' a bit to fit the block sizes so that the sub-units came out at approximately the correct size. We adjusted downwards to give something nearer to campaign strengths rather than 'official' strengths. The 5 man strips in the front ranks are notched so that they can be broken apart and distributed along the battalion/squadron as Officers and NCO's. The blocks used are from both the Horse & Musket and Renaissance ranges.
