Box Description
Age of Napoleon 1805-1815 is a colorful boardgame for two players that is based on the rise and fall of one of the greatest military commanders in history: Napoléon I, Emperor of the French. One player commands the forces of France and its allies and tries to achieve domination of the European continent. The other player leads a coalition of nations aiming to force Napoleon’s abdication once and for all.

The game not only represents the military units with playing pieces, but also elegantly integrates famous events, important personalities and random factors by using playing cards.

Age of Napoleon 1805-1815 contains three different scenarios, starting in 1805, 1809, and 1813. Players familiar with the game are able to finish the 1813 scenario in 45 minutes.

From the makers of A House Divided, Waterloo, Nero, and The Prince.
