1871: More Grand Tactical Rules for the Franco-Prussian War

Fast-play grand tactical rules for the Franco-Prussian War, using the established mechanics of the 1870–1866 series with streamlined fire combat, charge and melee, and morale procedures. The revisions reduce the time required to resolve each turn while remaining fully compatible with the earlier rules. The approximately 65-page, full-color volume includes designer’s notes, examples of play, contemporary illustrations, terrain photographs, and a color quick-reference sheet. Twelve historical scenarios cover both the Imperial and Republican phases of the war, each with orders of battle, maps, historical notes, and alternative situations, ranging from divisional engagements to battles involving several corps.
