Rules: Napoleonics

Clauswitz’ War: Theatre-Level Napoleonic Campaign Rules

by

Clauswitz’ War: Theatre-Level Napoleonic Campaign Rules is a set of free wargames rules for Napoleonic campaigns. The author writes:

These rules are designed to be used to represent theatre-level campaigning with armies of several corps per side during the Napoleonic period. Each turn is a day, and maps covering an area from 100 – 500 miles on a side with good detail (roads, rivers, towns) should be used. The intent of these rules is not to depict campaigning 100% accurately, but to provide a referee with basic guidelines for running a Kriegspiel-type game for the generation of tabletop engagements. All dice are ordinary 6-sided dice.

En Avant En Masse Napoleonic Rules

by

En Avant En Masse is Jim Wallman’s diceless, divisional level Napoleonic Wargame. Jim writes:

Based on the En Avant! diceless battalion level game, this takes the concept to the next level. This system is designed to play out a corps battle using 6mm figures in about an hour or so. The intention is that there is a player per division, with a corps commander in overall control, per side. It is not intended that the players see or use the game rules � this is to be done by one or more umpires.
