Hi George we were only bragging about it today. Do as the rules say(introduction to wargaming book)... double all measurements. We use 28mm miniatures here...

Has anyone ever tried to use d8s or even d6s instead of the usual d10 for firing and close combat dicing in Napoleons Battles in order to put more weight on...
Hi group, It's been awhile since I played and I am wondering if there are any active groups playing Napoleon's Battles in Metro Detroit? Thanks Jesse...
