Battles of Napoleon: Vol 1 - Eylau 1807 (New Arrival)

Manufacturer: Sound of Drums

Battles of Napoleon is an epic game series that simulates the most famous battles of Napoleon on a tactical scale sharing an elegant and cohesive ruleset.

The series portrays the most important aspects of battles of the Napoleonic era with easy to learn and remember rules, intuitive mechanics and procedures. This enables players to focus less time consulting the rulebook and more time on strategy, tactical decisions and gameplay.

The system focuses on the "cat-and-mouse game" of coordination and timing of the various formations of the different arms without unnecessarily complex or excessively thematic gameplay that too often compromises game-flow.

The scale of the series is appr. 150 meters per hex. Infantry units are battalions; artillery are batteries, and cavalry are represented as regiments.

The Game includes 5 scenarios: The fight for night quarters (small scenario), Murat's massive cavalry charge, Davout's attack, Lestocq saves the day and the Grand Battle scenario.
