Cannonade

“Napoleonic era tactical combat simulation. Watch out for grapeshot.”

Each player is given 100 points to construct a force from the following types of units: Infantry (1 point), Cavalry (1.5 points), Cannon (10 points), Officer (3 points), and Baggage (supply wagons, 2 points). Each player also receives a Flag unit “for games of capture the Flag.” The players must also construct their own map of the battlefieldt using four abstracted terrain types: Clear, Covered, Fortified, and Impassable.

The object of the game is to obtain the most Victory Points, which are awarded in varying amounts for killing or capturing units.
