Age of Eagle is Napoleonic Fire & fury, the miniatures rules you and many others have been waiting for. Fully integrated into the original, classic rules set, huge battles are now possible in a system that achieves a near perfect balance between accuracy and simplicity.
Units are infantry and cavalry brigades, as well as artillery batteries of between 6 and 12 gun. Each infantry stand represents 360 foot soldiers while each cavalry stand represents 180 mounted troopers. Ground scale is 120 yards to each inch, while all turns represent 30 minutes of actual time.
This is a “Big Battle” game where you will command multiple divisions, not battalions. Everything is included to make battles of over 150,000 combatants a playable reality. Unit data charts, irregular units such as colorful Cossacks or steady Prussian Landwehr, lancers, armored Cuirassiers and more, are all presented in a format designed to appeal to Grognard and recruit a like.
