About the Game

Battles: Napoleonic is a 1-2 player tactical skirmish wargame depicting infantry warfare in Europe between France and England during the early 1800s.

The game features 5 different soldier types, 3 types of battles, and 10 battle maps. Campaigns consist of either 5 or 10 random linked skirmish battles. For solitaire players, the game offers an advanced AI bot opponent which makes calculated decisions based on its current situation. Features such as day/night, weather, line of sight, 7 terrain types with movement/cover effects, and ranged/melee soldier attacks are also included.

One D6, one D20, and two D10 dice are required to play. A dry erase pen is also required. Solitaire or 2 players. 5 minute game components setup and breakdown times. May be played on a small size table. Adjustable difficulty based on player's skill level. Total campaign play time is approximately 2.5-5+ hours (depending on campaign length chosen). Individual battles can last between 15-45 minutes. For game support, please be sure to visit the Black Cat Wargames Facebook group

With most of the rules integrated into the tables, there is practically no learning curve or rules memorization. And with 5 soldier types, 10 battle maps, randomized enemy soldiers setup (single-player), an advanced AI bot opponent (single-player), randomized enemy soldier skill levels (single-player), small table footprint, and quick setup/breakdown times, Battles: Napoleonic offers an entertaining game for players of all skill levels, plus high replay value.
