The Game (French & English):

Bautzen 1813

Bautzen is a game for two players that simulates the second battle day of Bautzen, the second main battle of the spring 1813 Napoleonic campaign. The 21st of May, The Emperor Napoleon assaulted the fortified positions of the Russo-Prussian army of Wittgenstein and Blücher. The total victory the Emperor needed depended on Marshall Ney, who however did not completely fulfilled his enveloping manoeuver.

The rule is an evolution of the Battle of Paris (VV 114).

Complexity: 6/10

Solo playability: 8/10

Duration: 2-3 hours

One turn: 1 hour

One unit: 1 division or 1 brigade 

VaeVictis Magazines have very nice, small Wargames inside (good BGG ratings) with very good looking counters (see product picts). One thing, that could be, is that the gaming map has some little crinkles, because they use the map as an envelope for the game. 

We printed the English Rules for You (in Colour) and send them together with the Magazine!
