2–4 players · 120 min · 12+

Charge is a wargame set in the 1800's pitting the French Empire versus the British.

Description from the box :

LIKE MARSHALS OF THE FRENCH EMPIRE

The players align their armies before sunrise of a great battle day. In each camp the troops are drawn up for combat :

 12 units of infantry
 6 units of cavalry
 6 units of artillery
 3 units of pontooneers
 1 quarter master

and finally the General Staff, the principal piece of the game.

Assaults of hills, crossing of rivers, taking of fortresses, turning movements. Thanks to more than a hundred beautifully finished pieces, representing the army corps, and thanks to the super-giant battlefield of more then 2.000 squares, "Charge" becomes the most exciting of all strategy games.
