Description

From Valmy to Waterloo is a set of tactical and grand tactical miniatures rules covering the period from 1792 to 1815. The emphasis is on command and control, with each nation's abilities depicted by year. The grand tactical level of the game accurately reflects the difficulties and time delay in issuing and reacting to new orders without weighing the system down. This allows some armies to react to a changing situation more quickly than others.

Although the French enjoy a greater level of flexibility on the grand tactical level, on the purely tactical level most armies had very similar abilities and this is reflected in From Valmy to Waterloo. The game not only forces players to use the correct tactics, but as a result of using the rules the player is shown an appreciation for the proper tactics of the period. Now for the first time, the depth of formations is as important as their frontage. Players must attack and defend in depth, due to the fact that events unfold much as they did historically.
