Order of Battle (Austrian):






Note: Blocks represent one bttn or one squadron. Block colors represent coat colors of each regiment, and the lines enclosing the blocks represent facing or cuff colors. Each cannon symbol represents two guns.

Note: in 1805 each Austrian infantry battalion serving in the Danube theater was supposed to have two 6-pounder guns attached as battalion artillery. However, due to the shortage of drivers and horse teams, this goal was never fully realized. At Haslach-jungingen, only the 12 battalions of the Right Column brought battlion artilley onto the field, resulting in a total of 24 6-pdr guns. Unfortunately, a better breakdown of which guns went to which battalions during the action is not available.

Also, the size of Austrian battalions in this action is not available.
