The scenario map in the printed booklet for Sahagun (cavalry action) - 21 December 1808 shows two leaders named Debelle.

The one referred to in the Historical background text is Jean-François Debelle (source: Wikipedia). I've found a couple of other French officers named Debelle, but I don't think any of them could have been present in this battle.

So, which of the two Debelle leaders on the map is Jean-François Debelle? And what's the full name of the other one?

Or, perhaps the scenario designer has experimented with the positioning of Debelle, and then forgot to clean up properly? In that case: Which Debelle should be removed?

Lone Leader = "Debelle",
Leader attached to Heavy Cavalry = "Dud’Huit" or "Dutruit" (not sure about right spelling)
if it´s from historical interest (for gameplay it changes nothing)
B)

we replace scenario picture with the right named "Heavy Cavalry Leader"

My dice are the hell!
