Risorgimento

The Long Century Operations Series brings the Second War of Italian Unification to life in "Risorgimento." As an operational-scale game, players will control the whole armies of the Franco-Italian allies and the Imperial Austrians in a campaign for the fate of Italy. Will there finally be an Italy for Italians, or will old habits of territorial dominion prove too difficult for a "modern" Europe to shake off? Each unit represents roughly a brigade of cavalry or infantry which can be commanded by HQ units representing divisional, corps, and army commanders. Battles are fought using a newly updated and refined LCOS core rules system. This game includes 2 scenarios, one covering the 1859 campaign and the other shorter scenario covering the campaign starting at Magenta. PLAYERS: 1-2 WEIGHT: 6/10 SOLO: 9/10
