On the drop down menu to register games it lists Elyau . This is not a HPS game - does another game company offer this ? I have stumbled across a web site called Operational Studies Group /Napoleon Gmes.com They appear to be only Board games , has anyone played these games -how would you rate them ? any information you can offer would be apprciated , Many Thanks in advance [:)] Cadet Purcell L'Armee Du Rine |

Its a module that is offered for play with NIR I believe. It was put out by Greg Gorsuch many years back.

http://www.cobexlaw.com/campaign/eckmuhl%20files.htm The above link should work. You go to the 1807 section and download the game files from there. To unlock them you email Stephane and he gives you the password. You need to own Campaign Eckmuhl by HPS for this version but its by Greg Gorsuch and I assume that means its pretty close to the same version he did for NIR. Also: I yes, I own alot of OSG's boardgames. Kevin Zucker is a real Napoleonic history buff. I havent played any of the games in years but basically he has a nice operational boardgames series. He has a couple of series going now including the older one he has had for years. Clash of Arms: http://www.clashofarms.com/ They sell Napoleonic boardgames as well and maybe by now the rules for their battle games (found at http://www.clashofarms.com/tac-nap.html)have been refined to where they make sense. I played the original La Battaile de la Moskova by Marshall Enterprises which was the first title in the Napoleonic series that you now see at Clash of Arms. Had bugs in the rules but once you got the errata and played it it was fun. You just had to watch out for the rules lawyers and folks that wanted to use quirky tactics. They have a set of Operational games which Kevin Zucker of OSG did for them. GMT Games has a nice set of Napoleonics games. Borodino: http://www.gmtgames.com/p-175-borodino.aspx Kutuzov: http://www.gmtgames.com/p-114-kutuzov.aspx To name just a few. They also have The Napoleonic Wars and Wellington (Card driven games). They dont cater much to Napoleonic games lately other than their card driven games. Decision Games doesnt really have much to offer other than a few simple to play board games. Not really much detail. Pretty much dated products. Pratzen Editions: http://www.pratzen.com/pages_en/projets.php They have an operational level set of games. Dont know much about them. MMP/The Gamers offers one title - the other two are out of print: http://www.multimanpublishing.com/theGamers/nbs.php And basically there isnt much after that. Anyone that has knowledge of other boardgame companies that does Napoleonics please let me know. It would be nice to see something fresh. The French mag. Vae Victis has alot of Napoleonic boardgames and the rules are available in English too. http://vaevictis.histoireetcollections.com/ I have one of their mags but I have yet to try and translate it or play the game using the English rules. <b>Maybe some of our French members could comment on those games?</b> Colonel Bill Peters Armee du Rhin - V Corps, Cavalerie du V Corps, 20ème légère Brigade de Cavalerie, 13ème Hussar Regiment HPS Napoleonic Scenario Designer (Eckmuhl, Wagram, Jena-Auerstaedt and ... more to come) [url="http://www.fireandmelee.net"]Fire and Melee Wargame site[/url]
