Trapped like a Fox, Campaign & Wargame Rules for The Seven Weeks War of 1866 is the third opus in the Wars of Empire series. The game covers the Austro-Prussian War including the West German and Italian theatres. The onus is on the Prussian’s and their allies to advance against the Austrian allies in West Germany as well as cross into Bohemia and seek a decisive victory.
