Becker, Jude COMBAT GENERAL: War of the Spanish Succession
The initial offering of the Combat General series is a set of rules for recreating battles from the War of Spanish Succession (1701-1714). Based on the perspective of the brigade commander, rules set showcases the interaction between evolving methods of attack and defense as practiced by infantry and cavalry units of the time. The units in your brigade will not always use the ideal tactics if you fail to keep your formations in linear array and allow yourself to be attacked. Complete army lists as well as an original period scenario are contained to aid play.
The age of linear warfare began just prior to this as the pike fell out of use and infantry battalions reduced the number of ranks in their formations thus extending their frontage and the frontage of the entire army into a long line. They did this to increase the amount of firepower from the constantly improving small arms in the form of matchlock muskets but increasingly firelock fusils. Thus, this era of the first decade or so of the 18th century is a good starting point to acquaint hobbyists with the unique concepts of the game system.1 vol, 148 pgs

Fields, Nic 393 THE CIMBRIAN WAR 113-101 BC: The Rise of Caius Marius
Illustrated narrative of the Cimbrian (or Cimbric) War explores how, in the autumn of 105 BC, Caius Marius managed to contain the Germanic threat in the north, before crushing it in two successful battles, at Aquae Sextiae (Aix-en-Provence) in Gallia Transalpina in 102 BC and at Vercellae (Vercelli) in Gallia Cisalpina in 101 BC.
The armies of the Roman Republic finally defeated the Germanic tribes of the Cimbri, Teutons, Ambrons, and Tigurini after a number of defeats -- in 113 BC of the consul Cnaeus Papirius Carbo at Noreia; the smashing of Marcus Iunius Silanus' army near Burdigala (Bourdeaux) in 109 BC, and the humiliating destruction of two consular armies at Arausio (Orange) four years later.1 vol, 96 pgs

Esposito, Gabriele 551 OTTOMAN ARMIES: 1820-1914
Describes and illustrates the armies of the embattled Ottoman Turkish Empire involved in 19th-century wars during the Empire's long spiral of decline.
