	Description Edit \| History

The Battle of Waterloo is perhaps the best known battle in history. The time is 18 June 1815. The Duke of Wellington's armies are drawn to defend the road to Brussels. Napoleon's superior French forces begin their assault. Can the British thin red line hold until the Prussian army arrives to fall upon Napoleon's flanks?

A simple introductory wargame.

Napoleon at Waterloo Map Remake 14x22

I made a new map for this game and have uploaded it in two sizes 14x22.59 and the other file is 11x17. I had to upload the zips separately, BBG issues. I would appreciate any feedback.

NaW Loss Tracker

Player aid designed to help you keep track of combat points lost for either side. If a side hasn't lost any units, simply don't mark it on the sheet. If a side has lost some units, use one of them to mark the square corresponding to the number of combat strength points lost. Easy as pie. paperparachute games (http://games.suspended-chord.info/) If you like this, thumb it! I'm working on a few redone countersets for various games.

Another set of counters

I wanted a set of counters that while "modern", would keep to the traditional symbols.
