ART OF WAR

Wargame with die-cut counters is an original module for the Jours de Gloire series and covers the last attack of the French army during the Battle of Waterloo. Napoleon's last reserve, six battalions of the Middle Guard and five battalions of the Old Guard, set off in square formation to assault Wellington's thin red line that was still holding its positions, while Blucher's forces were becoming an ever greater threat on the French army's right flank.

The historical scenario has 5 turns, each covering twenty minutes of real time. A game of La Garde avance! should last around 1 hour. Wargame rules in English.

Game turn: 20 minutes
1 Strength Point: About 200 infantry, 150 cavalry, or 2 guns.
1 Hex = 100 m
