Category: 321 Napoleonic

Last week I got a first look at my friend Mark’s “321 Napoleonic Fast Play Rules” in action with his French versus Matt’s Russian-Prussian Allied army; each of 1,000 points using the rules’ points system. These rules have the Battalion, Artillery Battery or Cavalry Regiment as the base unit and are designed to be fast play so a game of this size can be finished in 2 hours or so (incl. terrain set-up) by experienced players. They are also however designed to be scalable (so larger games on bigger tables with 70+ units a side or more), and more importantly to also allow historical refights, all with accurate tactics (i.e. no Napoleonic infantry pike phalanxes in these games).
