If you are interested in the Napoleonic period of history and like boardgames then this book is for you. The battle of Leipzig 1813 is creatively reproduced within its pages, it contains all that is required to reproduce a boardgame that is intended to tactically test your gaming skills and strategically expand your planning abilities. Leipzig is a chess game of the grandest scale, pieces flow about the battlefield with deliberate or reactive movement, like any battle you never have complete control. After the disastrous Russian Campaign of 1812, Napoleon rushed back to Paris to organise a new army. France was losing battles on all fronts and Napoleon needed to steam the flow of loses. A few great victories were needed to bring piece and time to reorganise his Grand Armêe. A decisive victory in Prussia at Dresden was the first step, the next would be at Leipzig. With the forces of Russia, Prussia, Austria and Sweden converging the battle would be hard fought, but a victory must bring peace to Europe, at least for a time! The gameboard is separated into four sections that fit together to recreate the battlefield of Leipzig. Counters and game markers will show the location and current state of all formations across the battlefield. An ingenious game turn sequence allows for a balanced gameplay without giving an evident advantage to either side. Victory is achieved by seizing objectives, causing attrition or capturing Napoleon. Rules of engagement have a basic and advanced level of gameplay, the latter introduce, detachment counters with their specialist roles, formations and optional reactive movement. The inclusion of unique historic events that occurred within the battle can be played out with an event card, this adds depth and realism to each game. Leipzig is part of the Grand Empire series of battles that is creative board gaming in a book, it's when boardgames becomes wargames. Produced to fit on a small tabletop, its ideal for a rainy day or just a weekend of enjoyment. All you need to recreate history are some six-sided dice and your imagination.

Also included is the optional gameplay of the Battle of Liebertwolkwitz, the largest cavalry battle of the Napoleonic era.
