Description

A wargame about the famous last battle of Napoleon. The goal of the French is to break the Allied line before the Prussian reinforcements arrive and turn the tide.

The game uses a very detailed system designed for dealing with battles of the Napoleonic Period. Counters represent companies (skirmishers), battalions (regular infantry), regiments (cavalry) and batteries (artillery), one hex represents 120m, one turn represents 20 minutes. At this scale Waterloo, being a large battle, needs 600 counters!

At present rules and all publications about the game are only in Polish language.
