In the Grand Manner

Although "In The Grand Manner" was originally designed for use in large scale re-enactment battles, the rules work just as well for divisional and brigade size counters. For those who wish to play with a points system, tables are included for making up your own "equal" forces. Be warned, however, that although the rules reward the aggressive minded player, the attacker will usually have to take significant losses to achieve overall victory. This reflects the generally bloody nature of Napoleonic warfare, rather than the turgid, long range sniping reflected in much of today's competition wargaming. At the end of a battle, you will find that the result will usually be clear to all involved, without detailed calculation of casualties and objective points.
