Description

Applying the DBx system to French Revolution / 1st Empire, "La Grande Armée" is an easy way to test the Napoleonic era with only few miniatures:
12 units + 1 general by camp, 4 footmen for an infantry unit, 3 for heavy cavalry, 2 for light cavalry or infantry, 1 gun & servants for a battery, no camps

This means an average of 40 miniatures by player.
A good way to recycle your Risk minis !
