    check here for stuff all I have is France’s set up, but I’ll update every time something new pops up!

    I think the weapon of the day was a musket that could be fixed with a bayonet.  Swords were more a decorative object.  The bayonet charge was a fixture up to and including world war I.  Perhaps swordsmen would have a +1 ability to pick strawberries or cut hay with the swords.  Perhaps offer a bonus of +1 to farmers when working with swordsmen to defeat a field of wheat?


  • If your gonna have swordsmen, why not include ninjas, panzers, and death stars while your at it.

  • '12

    The death star should be able to do offplanet bombardment with no chance of casualties returning fire.  Ninjas should be able to attack units and capture them, say a 1/6 chance of taking over an enemy unit.  Also there should be provisions for a trojan horse full of greek swordsmen.  They can kill the enemy greek style with their long weapons.

    Good idea, but I won’t.

  • I just noticed you included riflemen aswell!

    Where are the stats for the Napoleon’s flying dragon unit?

  • '12

    I guess the dragon stats would depend on the age of said dragon and if it fights on a full belly or not.

    Do I dare ask what the flying dragon is?

  • Okay I got the UK’s setup on I’ll do some edits on it later and I’ll put Russia and Austria on next, but won’t put an update, next update on the site, will be costs and stuff anyways here’s the site

  • I’m actually doing something similar, but only for my own amusement. I’m using the map and some tokens from Napoleon in Europe, the units from Viktory II, the chits with the generals from Age of Napoleon, and the battlefield rules from Napoleon’s War for tactical battles.

    It will play as a sort of Napoleon: Total War, The Boardgame. The ship pieces included with the Viktory II set are excellent for naval engagements.

    Altough this isn’t an Axis & Allies clone, it will look and feel a lot like it, with area movement, dice rolling, and plastic units.

    calvary? Outside Jerusalem?
    ahh now I get it. swords into ploughshares and then… cha-ching no hill.

    You’re quite right. Couldn’t do that landscaping with muskets.

    I’m using photoshop to make the map.


  • I should have this done by around the end of the year, dunno, I’m still a bit unsure about somethings, but it will somehow be released wherever it’s printable, actually, played online, still don’t quite know.
