Description
This flexible game system allows players to fight battles in the smoothbore, rifled musket, and modern rifle eras. A "multiple scale" system allows any size battle to be played with the number of miniatures available. The advanced rules provide a command system. Army lists are provided for 20 wars.
Period
19th Century (1830-1902)
Scale
Variable. Depending on scale selected, the basic maneuver unit is the section, company, battalion, regiment, or brigade. Time per turn depends on scale, ranging from 5 minutes to more than a half hour. Ground scale likewise varies, from 1" = 2 yards to 1" = 132 yards. Each infantry stand represents (depending on scale chosen) from 3 men to almost 400 men; one artillery stand represents 1-8 guns.
Basing
Any basing system can be used, though the rules suggest placing 3 infantry figures on a 1" wide x 3/4" deep base; for cavalry stands, 2 figures on 1" x 3/4" base; one gun per artillery stand, with four gunner figures. The suggested base size is for 15mm miniatures, and is proportional for anything that is larger or smaller.
