Napoleon Saga - Waterloo

Each player starts the game with two decks: his Army deck and his Strategic deck, as well as a game board representing his side of the battlefield.

The Units cards: They constitute the Army deck from which they are drawn and placed on the battlefield. There are three types of unit cards (Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery) and their characteristics are represented by four icons corresponding to their capacity for shooting, mêlée, Cohesion and Morale strength. In addition to these, some of the Units have special skills and keywords.

The Action cards : They constitute the Strategic deck and help you influence the course of the battle through Events and Combat formations, granting various bonuses to your troops and ensnaring oppenent in deadly situations.

A cunning tactician will know when to hold on to these cards and when to pitch them early to play first, since the Strategic cards are also used to determine the initiative of each turn.

In turn, each player will select one of his Unit with which they will have the opportunity to fire, move or engage in mêlée. Your troops will sustain casualties that could make them retreat or even die!

The death of your units is not to be taken lightly, since it is the primary source of victory points for your opponent.

You may win more victory points by fulfilling your secrets goals, defined at the beginning of the game. Knowing when you have achieved victory on the battlefield can be tricky if you cannot guess and prevent your opponent from achieving his secret goals!

You are the General, the leader of your army! Critical and strategic choices await you each turn. Are you going to attack up front? Are you going to shell with your artillery or try to outflank the enemy line? Beware of your adversary strategy and keep an eye of your troops morale because the fate of Europe rests in your hands!
