We recently played a follow up game to test our Work In Progress Napoleonic rules having made some amendments.

Figures and terrain all from the fabulous collection of Steve Shann. Narrative and lots of pictures here;

Looks superb.

I see you chaps follow Napoleon's dictate: "An army marches on its stomach" with the plate of cake.

Indeed, and also the idea of getting their fastest with the mostest, I managed to eat most of it too!

@Roger.

There are quite a few great Napoleonic rule sets out there. My personal problem with them is they are too slow- 5 or 6 hours to finish a medium sized game just doesn't work for me.

We're now using "Valour & Fortitude" which has pros & cons but the biggest advantage is you can fight an enormous game in under 4 hours.

So – question. Your rules look like ticking a lot of boxes but are they a fairly quick set?
