Hello,
Don't have a save file but if you want to make your own historical deployment, you can look at this map which i believe is accurate ;)

Yes i saw this map in internet,but this map elevations are different with elevations on bibuoba map.

Furthermore, it's difficult to know exactly how many guns from the other corps (guard) were in the "grande batterie" additionally to those of d'Erlon...

I found only one place where i think Napoleon can put grand battery, but i dont know is that historical or not.

From what i've read on the topic, the charge of the British heavy cav against d'Erlon went to the battery.
An hypothesis is the following...

Yes, but no hills in this area to place the artillery on satellite map! Strange thing yea?

On your picture, it looks like there are small hills on these two points for the battery.
Do you think it's a possibility?

If im place battary on your left black line it was to far from enemy line to open fire, and on right black line no hills its just slope of enemy hill, you can see it in 3d mode. So where the battary place? :D

We have to think battle 200 years ago,satellite is now and can be much different.

My book says that shots at a distance of 1000 meters,and says that  not good precision sometimes only moral effect.

But for 12 pounds ,what is good distance for LG?
