The prussian cavalry brigade at Blenheim consisted of.

3 cavalry/cuirassier regiments each of 3 squadrons for a total of 300 each.
1 dragoon regiment of 3 squadrons total 300
And a dragoon regiment of 160

Total 14 squadrons and 1360 men.
I first planed on doing each 300 man regiment as a single BLB squadron.
That gives 4 squadrons, and I would use the 160 man unit also as a squadron to even things out.
For a total of 5 BLB squadrons, does this seem like the correct strength for a 1300 strong brigade.

I suggest you use some "artistic license" and put the units on the Table as you see fit and count them on your sheet how strong they really are. I think to remember that we used that scheme in RtE as well, for the same purpose.
