Battles and Leaders -- A Game of Tactical Level Combat in the American Civil War
$34.99
This game is undocumented as complete. We set a lower price due to that fact. Unfortunately, we are not experts in the arena of vintage strategy games. All we know -- is they look awesome and intricate, so we bought some. This copy of Battles and Leaders was published in 1981. The story on this one is very neat -- it goes like this:
Battles & Leaders allows players to recreate
brigade size engagements of the American Civil War. Accurate and
playable rules cover the important aspects of the combat such as:
formations (column, line, and skirmish), charges, melee, routs,
leadership, sharpshooters, morale and the quality of individual
regiments and more. The game's mechanics take into account over twenty
different weapons types ranging from the standard rifled musket and the
twelve pound Napoleon field piece to the breach loading Whitworth rifle.
Scenarios include "historical situations" such as Little Round Top and
Bloody Angle as well as situations that were "generic" to the war such
as meeting engagements and cavalry raids. Battles & Leaders is a
game that covers its subject with style and detail but maintains an ease
of play while presenting players with the "feel" of the era.
The game comes with everything seen in the pictures. We hope this is your cup - o - tea. Radar Toys.
Recommended Ages: 12+
