L'Armeé du Nord: the Belgian Campaign 1815

A simulation of Napoleon’s final campaign in Belgium in 1815, as the French Army of the North advances toward Brussels and confronts Wellington’s and Blücher’s allied forces. Players command French, British, Dutch-Belgian, Prussian, and other units across the battles and movements around Charleroi, Quatre Bras, Ligny, Wavre, Genappe, and Waterloo. The game uses three illustrated maps covering the campaign area. Hexes represent 700 meters, each game turn covers two hours, and strength points represent 1,000 infantry, 500 cavalry, or one artillery battery.
