Read the full game description

Vae Victis issue 35. This game covers the 1800 battle of Marengo, one of Napoleon's earliest great victories (when he was still merely "General Bonaparte") using a simplified version of the rules used in some of Vae Victis's other "Jours de Gloire" battle games (not to be confused with the rules used in the "Jours de Gloire: Campagne" series). As with all Vae Victis games, the counters need to be cut out and mounted. The rules are entirely in French, although translations are available online. SYSTEM: Jours de Gloire Series (JDG) - scale = 297 m/hex; - time = 75 min/GT; - strength = 200 men/SP.
