The Partizan Press Guide to War Gaming The Crimean War 2012

So why wargame the Crimean War?

Colourful uniforms, organisations and tactics which are comfortably familiar to the Napoleonic war gamer, with just a hint of the technological advances to come. All this and the chance to fight along side different allies and to take on the might of Russia in the process.

So it’s not quite Napoleonics, neither is it the American Civil War. The Crimean War is its own conflict and one that can be almost as far reaching as the war gamer requires.

With an increasing number of figures and rule sets becoming available, perhaps the Crimean War could become ‘the next big thing’ in the world of war games…
