1-COM1175 Moeller, Christopher NAPOLEON'S EAGLES 2: Hundred Days Wargame of the final four battles of the Napoleonic age: Quatre Bras and Ligny (June 16, 1815), and Waterloo and Wavre (June 18, 1815). Two campaign games allow the battles of the 16th and 18th to be played together, as well as a grand campaign that combines all four battles.

Combat is a back and forth affair, using specially designed decks of playing cards. Combat units, featuring glorious period artwork, represent infantry and cavalry formations, massed artillery formations, and those leaders operating at the highest levels (Wing and Army command).
