Despite ominous setbacks in Spain, Napoleonic France before 1812 was at the height of its expansion. The continental system was holding, if imperfectly. Monarchs friendly to the Empire (several, members of Napoleon’s immediate family), ruled in every capital of the continent. Only Britain remained unbowed. By the end of 1813 the story had changed dramatically…\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNapoleon’s Eagles is a highly playable, action-packed card game set during the wars of 19th Century Europe. Two battles are featured: Borodino, the sanguinary clash before the gates of Moscow featured in Tolstoy’s famous novel War and Peace, and Leipzig, the great “Battle of Nations” which marked the beginning of the end of the French Empire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo smaller battles are included (Shevardino and Lieberwolkwitz), as well as two campaign games that cover multiple days of battle: September 5th-7th, 1812 at Borodino and October 14th-18th, 1813 at Leipzig. The game includes rules for cavalry charges, artillery bombardment, army morale and army commanders. Emphasis is placed on the role of reserves and the judicious commitment of infantry and cavalry. Key terrain pieces are featured, such as the city of Leipzig and the famous Great Redoubt at Borodino.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct information\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComplexity: 5 out of 10\u003cbr\u003eSolitaire Suitability: Low (card-driven game)\u003cbr\u003eTime Scale: abstract (one full day of battle is 6 turns)\u003cbr\u003eUnit Scale: Infantry and Cavalry Corps\u003cbr\u003ePlayers: Two\u003cbr\u003ePlaying Time: 30 to 90 minutes; 4 hours for large campaign\u003cbr\u003eDesigner: Christopher Moeller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComponents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e225 Poker-sized cards which include 89 Unit Cards, 32 Terrain and Info Cards, and 104 Playing Cards\u003cbr\u003eTwo Player Aid Cards\u003cbr\u003eThree Scenario Set-up Cards\u003cbr\u003eOne Rules and Scenario Book\u003cbr\u003e1 Box and Lid set\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Compass Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31991788732467,"sku":"CPA1099","price":45.53,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic5139957.jpg?v=1588746704","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/napoleons-eagles-storm-in-the-east-the-battles-of-borodino-and-leipzig","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
