About this game
Simple variation of the Napoleon's Last Battles system depicting the Franco-Prussian engagement at the start of the Revolutionary War on 20 September 1792. Colorful 78x56cm map at a scale of 400m per hex, and double-sided units at regimental and battalion level. The game has simple formation rules, but is low-complexity with no facing rules. The 19-page rulebook, in French, contains historical commentary, OBs, examples of play, but only 8 pages of actual rules. Not much chrome, for instance to simulate the famous French cannonade!
