{"product_id":"commands-colors-napoleonics","title":"Commands \u0026 Colors: Napoleonics","description":"\u003cp\u003eCommands \u0026amp; Colors Napoleonics is a war game based on the Commands \u0026amp; Colors (C\u0026amp;C) game system designed by Richard Borg.The system is recognisable for utilising battle dice and a shared deck of command cards. The battle dice enable combat to be resolved efficiently. The command cards form the game engine, driving movement and providing orders for Units. They also serve to create a fog of war effect which add to the realism. Games utilising the C\u0026amp;C system also have a game board that is a hex grid. This grid is divided into three sections: Left flank, Centre, and Right flank. Napoleonics overlays this system with game concepts inspired by the era in which it is set. Aside from providing new challenges to veteran players, it adds historical depth to the game. This creates compelling gameplay that succeeds in simulating Napoleonic warfare. The base game focuses on confratations between Napoleons Forces and those of Great Britain. The focus here is on confrontations between The First French Empire and Great Britain. Fifteen scenarios are included, showcasing engagements from Rolica in August 1808 to Waterloo in June 1815.The game comes with eight Battle dice and 70 Command cards, which will drive movement and combat. There are also 56 double sided terrain tiles which players will use to enhance the battlefield.Units are represented by 340 wooden blocks, to which illustrated stickers can be attached. There are three types of block included: Small squares (193) for Infantry, bigger squares (87) for Cavalry and rectangular blocks (60) for Artillery and Leaders.
