Sharpe's Command társasjáték

Angol leírás

A game that maps the narrative from the novel of the same name by Bernard Cornwell. A solitaire 'push-your-luck' style game in which the player expends luck (as a resource) to try and complete the game mission and destroy the river bridge and forts.

'Cat's Lives' are used as a resource to allow a shift in combat odds at each combat engagement. Conversely, characters may suffer hits that lower the combat odds.

The key characters from the novel are all represented (Sharpe, Harper, Hagman, Chosen men, Lt. Love, Teresa, El Heroe. Each combat engagement maps to one from the novel.

Note that this is NOT a simulation. The modest ambition of the design is simply to allow the player to revisit the plot of the novel in a fast playing, fun way.

The rules, map and player aids are all available in the files section.
