📖 About This Game
Le Vol de l’Aigle (Flight of the Eagle ) is a game simulating Napoleonic era campaigns. It is double- blind based, as the players can communicate with each other only through messages carried by the umpire. It is played on nineteenth century maps from Thier’s atlas with a quite simple system. The players are really acting the part of the general, who barely knew where the enemy, as well as his own army, were. The game needs only paper and pens, with a few dice. It is the first volume of a three-volume series eventually covering all the issues of Napoleonic warfare.
Includes :
- 1806 campaign in Prussia
- 1806-1807 scenarios in Poland : Pultusk, Eylau, Friedland
- 1809 beginning campaign in Bavaria
