Battles of Napoleon is an epic game series that simulates the most famous battles of Napoleon on a tactical scale sharing the same basic rules.

The series portrays the most important aspects of battles of the Napoleonic era with easy to learn and remember rules, intuitive mechanics and procedures. Players may focus on taking decisions and playing rather than consulting rules.

The system focusses on the "cat-and-mouse game" of coordination and timing of the various formations of the different arms without too much crunchy chrome.

Infantry was the predominant and most important element in every European army of the period. It usually formed between 60 and 90 per cent of an army in battle, and was both the cheapest and the most versatile type of troops. The foot soldiers had to endure most of the fighting and casualties. Depending on their task, they were either deployed in line (fire power), column (maneuver and assault) or square formation (protection against enemy cavalry).

Cavalry were screening the own army and provided the shock element on a Napoleonic battlefield. Due to their shock power they fixed enemy infantry and forced them to take shelter in square formation. If infantry failed to form square they were overrun. If infantry was fixed in semi-static squares they were very vulnerable to artillery fire.
Artillery, the queen of the battlefield, was on the one hand having devastating effects on square and closely packed formations, on the other hand artillery alone was extremely vulnerable when getting charged by enemy units.

Generals are tasked with taking advantage of favorable terrain like the famous Duke of Wellington who mastered the reverse slope tactic.

By a simple game mechanic, players will never know the exact strength and power of an enemy unit. Units have a number of strength points that will gradually decrease while engaged with enemy units.

An innovative chit-based Command system, where players randomly draw activation chits determines which army may activate a formation, leads to highly interactive game play. Reaction follows action. We bring the chit-based Command system to a new level: In this games series, players decide which formation is activated when a chit is drawn. A formation may be activated several times per turn. But by each new activation it performs less effective.

During a game turn the players are under constant pressure to decide which formation to activate. By efficient timing of activation players are in the "driver's seat" to dictate the pace of a battle.

Formations are given orders at the beginning of a game turn and are therefore limited by the actions they can perform on the battlefield. The more "aggressive" orders formations will receive, the more likely is the army will collapse due to fatigue. On the other hand, an army is more likely to gain the initiative on the battlefield by "aggressive" orders.

The scale of the series is appr. 150 meters per hex, infantry units are battalions, artillery is batteries and cavalry is represented as regiments. A game turn represents 60 minutes. Within a game turn a formation may be activated up to three times (with lower performance on each activation).

The bloody winter battle of EYLAU 1807 will be the first volume in this series. Special rules like the possibility to launch a massive cavalry charge and features like snow storms, Russian Cossacks and the French Guard add distinctive flavor of the battle.

The perfect casual layer—unbelievably soft!
Size: Large, Color: Burgundy
I am seriously impressed with this hoodie. It’s made from a lightweight jersey material that feels just like a broken-in, high-quality t-shirt. It’s perfect for those transitional weather days when a heavy fleece hoodie would be too warm, or for just lounging around the house. The fit is spot on—not too baggy but with enough room to move comfortably. It washes really well without shrinking or losing its shape. For the price, you absolutely cannot beat the value. I'll definitely be buying a few more colors!

The Perfect Hoodie for Warm Weather Comfort
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
I've been on the lookout for something exactly like this... a hoodie with the look and feel of a sweatshirt, but without all that heavy fleece that can become uncomfortable when temperatures rise. This Amazon Essentials Lightweight Jersey Pullover Hoodie turned out to be just the solution I needed. Right out of the package, I noticed the material felt soft and airy, like a premium-quality T-shirt rather than a traditional hoodie. The lightweight fabric hits just the right balance: thin enough to remain cool and breathable, yet substantial enough to give you that hoodie vibe you're after. This makes it especially great when the weather is too warm for your thicker hoodies but still a bit too breezy for just a tee. The fit is exactly what I was hoping for... comfortable without being baggy, and relaxed enough to allow easy movement. It drapes nicely, so it never looks awkward or ill-fitting. The hood itself is perfectly sized—not overly bulky, but still practical if you need a bit of coverage. No shrinkage when washed and didn't fade. I've found this hoodie to be ideal for casual days around town, lounging, or even traveling. It layers well, making it versatile for spring, early summer evenings, or warmer fall days. If you're looking for something comfortable, lightweight, and stylish enough to pull off the hoodie look in warmer weather, this is absolutely worth picking up.

My new favorite hoodie!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather
I love this, this is my new go-to hoodie! It's very soft and breathable, it's roomy and comfortable, and it's not too heavy. I've washed it a few times and it's held up well. For the price, you really can't go wrong. I'll probably end up buying a couple more colors.

Sleeves are too short
Size: Large, Color: Black
Good quality about as thick as heavy t shirt. The only issue is the sleeves are a tad short which is a bit disappointing. Not sure I will buy this again. I’m 5-7 175 and ordered a large and it fits well. Just a smidge oversized like I prefer.
