Napoleonic fast play card driven wargames rules
”Command by Colour” series.

From the website http://www.tsoa.be/html/titelblad_uk_napoleonic.html

"DESIGNER'S NOTES:
This is another set of my card driven wargame rules "COMMAND BY COLOUR", and although still loosely inspired by the Battle Cry & Memoir '44 games by Richard Borg, this game no longer has a battlefield divided in 3 sections, because I took a different approach. The left-centre-right wing Battle Cry/Memoir '44 principle has here been replaced by colour-coding the units red, green and blue (activated by command cards of the same colour) thus enabling the players to concentrate their units anywhere on the battlefield if they wish so."

Units can only be moved, battle or execute a special action according to the orders written on these cards.

To calculate the result of combat, special battle dice called "dice in dice" or "double dice" are used (search the net for suppliers, there are several).
