The Napoleonic Wars
A fast-paced, card-driven wargame recreating the strategic struggle of the Napoleonic era on a point-to-point map. Players represent major powers and use a shared deck of strategy cards that function as historical events or as command points to activate leaders, move armies and fleets, and conduct diplomacy. Play balances the immediate effects of event cards against the need for command points; uncontrolled minor powers are handled via a diplomatic track influenced by card play. Games scale from short, sudden-death scenarios to longer campaign sessions and accommodate two-to-five players in sessions that typically last from a single evening to multiple sittings.
