Description

A set of Napoleonic miniatures rules. Units have a base strength which is modified by a die roll. This strength is used as the basis for firing, melee and morale tests, but not determined until the player needs to know it.

Movement is based on initiative points, based on a die roll. Better officers get a better roll.

The game consists of the rules and includes army lists for all major participants in the period 1793-1815.
