Battalion level simulation of the Battle of Quatre Bras, 16th June 1815, 2 days before Waterloo. Uses the Wellington's Victory game system.

Rules include facing, formation (line, extended line, column, square, skirmish), cavalry charge and counter charge, army morale, command control and everything one would expect from a tactical Napoleonic era game. Victory determined by capturing objectives and killing SPs as well as breaking the enemy army's morale. SYSTEM: Wellington's Victory System (WVS) - scale = 100 yard/hex (91 m/hex); - time = 15 min/GT; - size = 100 men/SP (Regimental/Battalion Size )
