It is evident from questions and moves received that I have not explained the movement rules clearly. A march consists of moving troops in ONE town to adjacent...
... A couple of points - the French were going to let their supplies move upriver past three Prussian corps completely unescorted? How would the ref have...
... I don't think the French argument required exactly that movement by the boats and in any case it is moot now. ... If no one argues for rain, then no rain....
... But as a learning experience - how would you have handled it? That's the kind of problem that comes up very frequently in these kinds of games -...
... I understood that the the supplies were being brought up to the original jump-off towns with such dispatch that the troops could march off rapidly, not...
Hi Vincent Hope I get it right this time. Orders: I Corps (Gembloux) and II Corps (Ligny) will concentrate at Namur with IV Corps. Situation, III Corps...

As my orders are not in and my plans not finally decided, I could be a bastard here and take advantage of all this information to optimise my turn. Being a...

Yesterday I was reading posts on Board Game Geek and came across the idea of having a book of map sections and using book marks to show where units are. It...

The map has been posted to the file section. Blucher's orders. I understand I can give orders to III Corps at Huy (without an argument) , if I want them to...
Vincent, Thanks for the map. Are you going to post the battle results as well? I assume from the new map that my Argument succeeded, but it would be nice to...
Sure, the book is ove a bunch of connected maps. Each page acts like a hex in a board game. Moving from hex to hex is done by shifting to a new page. That...
... Sounds like the old WWI book game 'Ace of Aces'. Each page showed maneuvers at the bottom. You selected one, your opponent selected one and when they were...
It does sound similar to Ace of Aces but when I read the idea it seemed more like another way to handle a game board. It is a field to play on rather than an...
Thanks. For some reason 3109 and at least one other posting were not forwarded by Yahoo to my e-mail box. I better read up on what messages I've missed. Marcus...

Ace of Aces is a first-person view of a state-map. Such a map could be used as the underlying system for a hybrid matrix game quite easily - and you could even...
