Glad you like them! When COVID hit, it prompted me to tidy up my office and enhance the background. I am a fencing coach by trade, so easy to find swords to hang up!
Gave this one a try quite a while back. And I thoroughly enjoyed it. Simple intuitive design, gorgeous components and it simulates the campaign rather well.
Eric, nice review! I may have to pick up this game in the near future. I own "Victoria Cross II Deluxe Edition" from Worthington Games They put out descent games with nice components. Fyi, I ordered and will getting La Bataille de Ligny soon, because of your review of that game! Thanks Steve
Hi Steve, Thanks for the comment and I am glad you enjoyed the videos. Regarding La Bataille de Ligny, if you are new to the series, there are many places you can go for help regarding rules, etc. There is a very active forum on Consimworld.com ( CSW Forum / Boardgaming / *INDIVIDUAL GAMES AND GAME SERIES Discussion / Era: Gunpowder / Napoleonics / La Bataille de ..... series (CoAG/Marshal)) On Facebook there are two private group pages; facebook.com/groups/697405064066822 and facebook.com/groups/355553441628299. The admins who run the pages will let you join. Have fun with the game! Also, I am trying to grow my channel, so I would appreciate if you could share this with like minded folks! Cheers!
@@EricsTableNapoleonicBattles Thanks Eric. I will certainly look into those recommended sites, being that this is more of a complex game than I'm used to. Lately, I'm used to playing low to mid level type. In fact, this may be the most complex game I ever will have ever played! (More than the Blind Swords system Civil War games by Herman Luttman). I notice it is solo compatable from watching yours and other UA-cam videos. I will try to spread the word about your site. I will have to connect to some old wargame friends I used to play with and mention it to them! Thanks
Hello Eric, thank you for the review, I´m an entusiastic Napoleon´s era and your review and judmend will help me to take the decision to buy the this game, because seem´s nice and simple to play, by the way cheers from Madrid, thaks!
Hi Carlos. Cheers from Los Angles California! Yes, I found this to be a fun and easy to play game. The components are attractive and well made. I hope you enjoy it.
TY for this review! I will buy it for sure: Beautiful + Fast + Historical + Clever mechanisms > For me! As a "light wargamer" I recently bought WWii Commander > The Battle of the Bulge. It's also the #1 of a new serie (I donno if you made a vidéo on it?). They want to attract a new generation of wargamers who don't like tons of little hexes, tons of stackings and tons of charts. Let's give up some realism for more PLAYABILITY! Best regard General - GG - City of Tours - France
Hi General GG, Greetings from California! Thanks for the comment! Yes, this game scores very high in playability. It would be a good game to introduce someone to historic wargames/boardgames! Please share this video on social media or with gaming friends, I am trying to grow the channel. Cheers!
Thanks for this Eric, looks like a good game it will be on my list but I have plenty to play as it is I would recommend The Great Crisis of Frederick the Great for you to try, not too far out of your comfort zone and I think you’ll like it
Hi Danny, I am glad you enjoyed the video. I feel your pain...so many games so little time! I'll check out the Frederick the Great title. I don't think I have any games covering that war. Also, please share this video on social media, I am trying to grow the channel. Thanks, Eric
