About the Game
The SYW Battle Series (SYWBS) games are playable grand-tactical portrayals of battles of the Seven Years War. The series’ intent is to show how command operates on the battlefields, using the weapons and tactics of the period. The system emphasizes command & control and playability. The games all share the following characteristics:
Scale = 200-220 m/hex (219-240 yrd/hex) Time = 30 min/Turn Counter = 1 Brigade, 1 Battalion, 1 to 3 Squadrons, 1 Battery, 1 Leader
Each unit's historical flag and uniform are displayed on Counters, Orders/organizational Displays, and Orders of battle (in Playbooks).
Kunersdorf 1759, the third game in the "SYWBS" series, simulates the battle fought on the 12th of August 1759 in Brandebourg, near Frankfurt an der Oder, during the Seven Years War. General Count Piotr Semionovitch Saltykov commanded a combined army composed of a Russian Army: 60,150 men (70 bns, 63 sqns + 45 Cossacks sotnias) and 201 field guns and an Austrian contingent commanded by FML baron Ernst Gideon Loudon: 19,200 men (16 bns + Grenzers, 36 sqns) and 10 field guns. King of Prussia Frederick II the Great commanded the Prussian Army: 50,200 men (63 bns, 112 sqns) and 160 field guns in total.
