Rules…
- Over the Hills: A Napoleonic Wargame
- For brigade-, divisional-, and army-size Napoleonic wargaming. Each army has been given a set of national characteristics to ensure that each army plays differently. This is enhanced further with the troop formations open to each nation and the differing abilities of each nation's commanders. Units are assigned a fatigue factor and as this degrades, so does your unit's ability to carry out any task. Uses d10s. Includes optional rules. $42.00 USD

- Military Force of Great Britain During the Napoleonic Wars: Volume One: Organisation of the Army
- To fully understand the British Army of the Waterloo period, we need to turn to a French scientific genius and spy! Charles Dupin visited the British Isles as soon as practical after the Napoleonic Wars in a fact-gathering exercise and wrote up his technical and organizational study of the British Army in his monumental study Force Militaire de la Grande-Bretagne. This was translated into English in an 1822 edition. Not only is this the closest contemporary study of the administration of the Army, it is also the best technical guide to the ordnance of the period, much of which has been incorrectly described by later authors. Our latest edition is hardbound with color printed covers. $50.00 USD
