I considering to purchase another HPS Napoleon game. I own HPS Waterloo at the moment.

Which of the other games in the napoleonic series do you recommend?

I am biased I know but I believe that Austerlitz is one of our finest games in the entire HPS inventory.

There are five areas of conflict:

Swabia (Ulm)
Danube Valley
Moravia/Vienna
N.Italy
England

Plenty of small, medium or large scenarios.

Scenario format include 10 min., 15 min., cav in squadron or in regiments.

Plenty of new scenarios yet to be played in the club.

I believe that you will not regret having picked Austerlitz over the rest![8D]

Austerlitz first then Jena would be my call. Bill is biased but for good reason the games are getting better as he goes and Austerlitz has massive scope and further refined game engine.
