subtitled: Napoleon's victory over Austria, 1805. Nap´s most famous Battle was fought on December 2, 1805 between the French Army under Napoleon and Russian-Austrian forces under Prince Kutusow, also known as the three- Emperor- Battle. The game is part of the La Bataille series, designed by Monte D. Mattson and Dennis A. Spors based on the Award winning system of Larry Groves / D. Spors. This simulation is a game on battalion/ regimental scale, a true monster with nearly 1000 counters. scale = 100 m/hex; time = 20 min/GT; strength = 50-100 men/SP (Regimental/Brigade Size) One of the best games in the series. With the unit density low, there is room for some maneuver - D. Spors
