Concept. These rules have been developed to fight tactically challenging
battles. They will not suit the ‘line ‘em up, throw a few dice, look pretty and
do nothing’ style of player. We have assumed that players have an understanding
of army organisation, terminology and a basic knowledge and general understanding
of Napoleonic, tactics, principles and warfare. Each manoeuvre piece on the
tabletop represents a Napoleonic tactical troop type, be it Infantry, Cavalry or
Artillery, known as a ‘Unit’. The Unit is represented by a number of appropriate
model figures mounted on a base, all of which have the same size frontage but
vary in depth. A group of two or more Units is called a ‘Formation’. Command
and Control was just as important an element of winning battles as the quality of
the troops, therefore it is a significant part of these rules and is simply and
effectively implemented by the use of Commanders Action Points or ‘CAPs’.

About The Authors. We (Alex Testo & Bob Carter - ‘KISR Publications’) are
both experienced Napoleonic wargamers who have both recently retired from wideranging
careers in the British Army. We have combined our military training and
experience with our knowledge of wargaming and Napoleonic history to produce this
unique set of rules. However we do not claim to ‘know it all’ so please feel
free to contact us for rule advice or clarification. Our contact details can be
found at the bottom of the ‘Contents’ Page.

2.3 Unit Representation. Each Unit represents a group of historical units,
the actual size of which can vary to suit any battle. However for the purpose of
the basic game each represents the following:
2.3.1 Infantry – This represents a brigade sized group of 2000 to 2500
infantrymen, including integral skirmishers, command staff and supporting
artillery.
2.3.2 Cavalry – This represents a brigade sized group of 1200 to 1500
cavalrymen including command staff.
2.3.4 Jagers or Skirmishing Cavalry – This represents an ‘ad hoc’
Independent group of 600 - 800 infantry or cavalrymen and command staff.
2.3.5 Artillery – This represents the Corps or Army Reserve or Horse
Artillery Units, each of up to 18 guns. At this scale artillery is
difficult to represent without it ‘cluttering’ up the battlefield so
Paragraph 2.6 gives more detail as to our reasoning behind this
representation.
2.4 Distances. All distances are referred to as ‘Paces’ with 100 paces
equating to 25mm if using 5mm to 15mm figures and 40mm if using 20mm to
30mm figures.

DBA jest punktem wyjścia do DBN i to widać, niemniej jest sporo różnych zasad związanych z okresem napoleońskim.

Kilka wyrywków z podręcznika aby ukazać kto jest autorem i jaka jest skala.
