Wargame Club Looking for CotD Players to Join!

Frank Hunter's Campaigns on the Danube is an operational study of the campaigns along the Danube in 1805 and 1809. Campaigns on the Danube's system focuses on trying to present the player with the same sort of decisions placed on their historical counterparts; how to feed an army and move that army according to a plan, all the while trying to fight a campaign. There is also an option to allow players to play out the battles with miniatures and input the results.

Wargame Club Looking for CotD Players to Join!

Post by 1NWCG »

The International Napoleonics Wargaming Club (INWC) had added CotD over a year ago and we have some members who own it, but we are interested in getting more people who own it to join us.

We are a fun, friendly Club that welcomes members from all over to enjoy playing games and earn some honors for it too. Click the link above if interested. Feel free to email me as well:

We hope we can get a good following of CotD people to join! It is a great game and I enjoy it a lot!

Are any of you in your club contemplating using "Histwar: Les Grognards" (once it is released) as a tactical engine to fight CotD battles as they occur in a campaign? That would seem to be Napoleonic Nirvana to me! It seems, from reading descriptions, that CotD lets you exit the campaign to resolve battles, then enter the results (from any tactical engine or miniatures game or whatever) back into the CotD campaign and resume at the operational level.
Is that correct? And, since LG says it will have a fairly easy mapmaking capability, plus the ability to specify all sorts of details for custom battles, I think this sounds pretty promising. Your thoughts?

Certainly, we plan to add LG as soon as we can. We already use HPS which has the OOB's in place for CotD's campaigns, so all you need to do is just find a map and add the troops. A little more complex than LG, but not totally out of the question. But that is how CotD runs with that option.

So In short yes, if our gamers want to do that we don't see any reason to stop them.
