Illustrates troop movements leading up to the Battle of Waterloo. I would like to see what people think of it.

Comments:
- My first thought was that the map was too cluttered with information; this might not be a totally actionable objection though. A second concern is that the map doesn't really give a good idea of the outcomes of each of those four encounters marked by Xs. --Malachirality (talk) 01:35, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- I colored the X marks to distinguish victory and added them into the legend. -- I. Pankonin (t/c) 02:30, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
Seconder:
- Support. Still crowded (even more so), but what can you do? Highly enc. --Malachirality (talk) 03:56, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- Do you think it would be better as a GIF? -- I. Pankonin (t/c) 07:30, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- Do you mean as an animation? No, I don't think so; something like this would IMO be too complicated for an animation, and the viewer would probably have to view it more than once to get all the info. Here, one can just study the image for a long time and figure everything out. --Malachirality (talk) 17:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
