Best Napoleonic Game?
Posted: Sun Dec 15, 2024 12:22 am
I'm always looking for THE better Napoleonic miniatures wargame. So far, I've not found it, but I've come close.
One problem in determining what's the best game is the scale to be played. Not just the sizes of the figures, but the scale of the game; will it be grand tactical with corps, like Blucher, or will it be 30-40 men skirmishing as in Sharp Practice? Or somewhere in between? Want more? Does a large number of QRS' (quick reference sheet) get your engine rumbling? Complex or simple rules? Is it just a couple of hours of play, or is it a weekend per game? And so on...
See what I mean?
What do you like to see in a Nap game for it to be the best?
