Description

The entire Napoleonic 20 game system maneuvers to new glory with the addition of new Events, Victory Conditions, a Tactical Combat Matrix, and more! Compatible with any complete game in the series, this Expansion Kit enlivens even the most well-trod battlefields.

Also included is a complete expansion game for Borodino 20 dubbed Gzhatsk 20. This is where the battle of Borodino should have been fought, were it not for bitter rivalry and jealousies among the changing Russian high command.

The Napoleonic 20 Series continues to find new recruits among gamers for its modest complexity and a focused scope employing low unit density on the map (20 pieces or less) and dramatic, fast playing turns. The addition of now-expanded ‘story-driven’ random event cards and night game turns provides the operational pauses and "friction of war" that gives players a great feel for the parry-and-thrust of a Napoleonic grand battle as the armies close to bayonet-point to see which will break first!
