La Patrie en Danger 1814: The Campaign in France, Part I

Simulates five engagements from the opening phase of the 1814 Campaign in France following the Battle of Nations. Players command French, Prussian and Russian forces on large hex maps at 480 meters per hex and one hour per turn, maneuvering corps and divisions represented by counters and strength points. Each scenario recreates a specific battle—local assaults, pursuit actions and flank marches—over roughly twenty turns, while the full campaign links the individual fights. Gameplay follows the Library of Napoleonic Battles system: unit combat, movement, command and combined-arms operations at division/corps scale with period-appropriate cards and player aids. Includes multiple maps, hundreds of counters, cards and rulebooks for standalone scenarios or linked campaign play.
