Beer & Pretzels: The Napoleonic Wars This rules set is designed for battalion-level Napoleonic war gaming engagements. Many 15mm wargames are extremely cumbersome to learn, need a lot of paperwork and require a long time to play. These rules are intended to provide a fast, fun game for both veterans and novice wargamers alike. Obviously, house rules can be added for additional complexity – but this way you can build your own complexity as you go. The game itself was designed by Napoleonic historian Robert Epstein. —description from the publisher
