Marengo 1800

Vae Victis issue 35. This game covers the 1800 battle of Marengo, one of Napoleon's earliest great victories (when he was still merely "General Bonaparte") using a simplified version of the rules used in some of Vae Victis's other "Jours de Gloire" battle games (not to be confused with the rules used in the "Jours de Gloire: Campagne" series). As with all Vae Victis games, the counters need to be cut out and mounted. The rules are entirely in French, although translations are available online. SYSTEM: Jours de Gloire Series (JDG) - scale = 297 m/hex; - time = 75 min/GT; - strength = 200 men/SP.
