Black Powder: Albion Triumphant Vol 1 - The Peninsular Campaign (Softcover)

Manufacturer: Warlord Games

The start of the eighteenth century saw huge changes in the way war was waged on land. Mass production of the simple, reliable, and cheap flintlock musket made possible large citizen armies that could overwhelm the smaller professional armies of earlier days. It was also the swan song of Emperors and Kings leading their armies in the field, men who were brought up to lead their men in person, risking death or disfigurement, but gaining personal glory.

By Waterloo, countries were industrialising and the urbanisation of Europe began, democratising the nations and bringing a close to the horrors of constant war that had haunted Europe for so many years.

This supplement for the Black Powder game overviews the main battles, armies, and personalities of these campaigns, and includes army lists, scenarios, and special rules to enable you to refight the musing the Black Powder rules.
