📖 About This Game
Bonaparte's First Offensive, April 1796
Charles S. Robert award winner in the Napoleonic category for 2023
With his commission order fresh from Paris, Bonaparte established his HQ at Nice and took command of a front-line force of 35,168 men of the Army of Italy, ordering them across the mountains and heading for a fight at Montenotte. After Beaulieu's 26,697 men of the Army of Italy escaped from harm's way and sprinted for Acqui, the Piedmontese Army became Bonaparte's next target.
Game features the battles of Montenotte, Dego, San Michele, Ceva (not listed on box cover) and Mondovi. A campaign game linking the battles is also possible.
