La Bataille de Wavre: June 18-19, 1815 (Second Edition Expansion)

As Marshal Grouchy´s men marched up the Brussels/Wavre high road the distant cannonade grew louder. Great events were apparently unfolding elsewhere. But as the sound of these guns increased to a continuous roar so too did the wrath of Grouch´s men. Frustrated in the knowledge that they were too far away to affect those events, by the time they reached Wavre their fury had reached fever pitch. General Vandamme took only a moment to arrange his lead division for assault. A moment later all hell broke loose.

La Bataille de Wavre simulates the often ignored exploits of the right wing of L´Armee du Nord, on the fateful day of Waterloo, June 18, 1815, and the field which it won the next day (completely oblivious to the enormity of Napo- leon´s defeat.) It can be played independently of the other games in the Waterloo cycle or linked and simultaneously resolved with La Bataille de Mont St. Jean.

As the French player you command the Corps of Generals Vandamme and Gerard. As the Prussian player you have General Thielemann´s unenviable task of standing between 33 thousand fanatically loyal Frenchmen and their Emperor.

It can be played independently of the other games or linked to be simultaneously resolved with Mont St Jean. The deluxe version of Mont St Jean or Ligny is required for the counters as the game doesn´t include any.
