Description

Napoléon 1806 is a wargame that drops you into the midst of Napoleon's imperial conquests, specifically the clashes between Prussian and French forces in 1806. In this game, two players take on the roles of the French and Prussian armies, navigating the challenges of campaign and battle. With a playtime of 60 to 120 minutes, you'll have the opportunity to relive the battles of Auerstaedt and Jena, making strategic decisions and anticipating your opponent's moves. The game is designed to be accessible to both seasoned wargamers and new players, with rules that can be learned in about 15 minutes. The French army has the advantage of numbers and experience, but the Prussian player can still seize opportunities to counter-attack and surprise their opponent. As the game unfolds over 7 turns, each representing two days of campaign, you'll need to manage fatigue and losses, concentrate your forces, and make tactical decisions to emerge victorious.
