The Age of Eagles 2nd Edition, aka Age of Eagles II (Napoleonic Fire & Fury) is a complete update of the original rules set and as such has spawned a French edition and expansion modules covering the Lace Wars and the Age of Rifles. Glossy color covers, BW interiors, same length as the previous, first edition. The game is a massive evolution of the first Age of Eagles and includes:
• Correction of all grammar, vocabulary and spelling errors.
• Interpretations of rules integrated into the text of the document.
• Rules changes, from both the author and our 3000 + person Yahoo Group added and integrated into the text of the book.
• New rules and data charts, from both the author and the Yahoo Group added and integrated into the text of the document.
• New army lists and generals, to include an all-new Ottoman army chart and a slew of Spanish generals.
• Changes are easily identified by underlined text.
Like its predecessor, Age of Eagles II is based on Fire & Fury for the American Civil War. This is a BIG battle game where units are infantry and cavalry brigades, as well as artillery batteries of between 6 and 12 guns. Each infantry stand represents 360-foot soldiers while each cavalry stand represents 180 mounted troopers. Ground scale is 120 yards to each inch, while all game turns represent 30 minutes of actual time. Players command corps, not battalions, and engagements of 150,000 plus combatants are an easy gaming reality.
The complete AOE related product line is sold direct thru digital distribution, though hardcopy versions are available from certain retailers. AOE II is 96+ pages long. Kindle formatted products are sold exclusively thru Amazon, while digital downloads exportable to PDF format may be purchased via Google Play.
