Empires in Arms

(from the back of the box - Avalon Hill edition:)

"Empires in Arms" is a board-wargame covering the major elements of diplomacy and warfare during the Napoleonic Wars of 1805-1815.

YOU, as a player, are the absolute monarch of a major European power (Austria, France. Great Britain. Prussia. Russia, Spain or Turkey) and guide that nation through the maze of conflicting interests and ambitions that characterized Napoleonic Europe.

Each major power has its own individual economic; military and geographic advantages and disadvantages.

Players negotiate alliances. dictate peace treaties. administer conquests and conduct warfare on land and sea by maneuvering corps and fleets in the constant struggle for survival and prestige.

• Numerous Scenarios : These vary in size and length from the four-Turn. two-player 1805 Scenario to the 132 Turn, seven-player Grand Campaign Game (1805-1815).
