About Battles Of Napoleonic Europe: A Solitaire Wargame
The Napoleonic Warsconsisted of a range of conflicts, from 1804 to 1815, fought between the First French Empire under Napoleon and a changing mix of European coalitions. This game focuses on a part of the Napoleonic Wars called the Peninsular War, which took place in the Iberian Peninsula, mostly between the Spanish, Portuguese and British armies on the one hand and the First French Empire army on the other. Battles of Napoleonic Europe presents some of the key battles from the period. The battles in this book are representations of the actual battles they depict, but in some cases deliberate changes have been made to add to the play experience. They will, however, provide some idea of what happened at each Battle, and allow the Player to recreate, or even rewrite, that history. In the game, the Player will be commanding various units, often representing many hundreds or thousands of men each, seeking to achieve a wide variety of Objectives. Key battles from the years 1808 to 1811 are included. The aim of this book is to present a clear, accessible, and quick to learn game, so that players can get into the action quickly. It does not try to replace more complex wargames which often take many hours to learn and to play. It also does not pretend to be entirely realistic, and many concepts have been simplified or abstracted for gameplay purposes. Each of the 20 Battle scenarios can be played in around 30 to 50 minutes, and each should provide plenty of replayability due to the random set up of the initial forces and depending on how the Battle plays out. Full colour Rules, Battle Maps and Counter Sheet are included. Players: 1 Time: 30 to 50 minutes per battle Complexity: 2-3 / 5
