Notes

The Prussian part of this order of battle was derived from one for the whole Prussian army dated 1st April. Some of the units listed here (especially those in Bülow's corps) may not have been present at Möckern. Borstell's division was actually part of Bülow's command, but has been seperated out here as he was acting independently.

I have been unable to unearth many details about the make-up of Berg's Russian force. It was certainly completely different to the formation he commanded at Lützen a month later.
