Napoleon's Campaigns: 1813 & 1815

User Summary

Wargame of two of Napoleon's campaigns: Leipzig and Waterloo. It simulates the sporadic nature of communication at that time by introducing a delay between your orders and the actions taken by your corps commanders, and inaccuracy in your information about enemy positions and troop strength. It also contains complex rule sets to model troop fatigue, morale, and leadership. The battles take place on a 18-by-21 hex grid, but only a 6-by-13 portion of it can be displayed on the computer screen, so the game includes map boards and 1/2" counters for the player to use to keep track of the entire scope of the battle.
