From his beginnings as a Corsican soldier, through his rise to power as the Emperor of France, to his final defeat at Waterloo, Napoleon Bonaparte built an empire... and a legend. Napoleon was that rarest of men - one whose life defined the age in which he lived. Now that age comes alive for your roleplaying game.
GURPS Age of Napoleon is a comprehensive guide to the life and times of Napoleon Bonaparte.
It contains:
* A history of the years leading up to Napoleon's rule, including events in Europe, Asia, and the American colonies. * Biographies for dozens of leading men - and women! - of the age, many with GURPS character writeups. * Chapters about life under Napoleon, both for the bourgeoisie and for the nobility, and about the culture of the age - music, art, and literature. * Suggestions for campaigns in the Age of Napoleon. Play officers in the French fleet, Wellington's foot soldiers, American blockade-runners, or secret agents for any of the empires. * Plus detailed maps of Europe, France, and Paris, during and after the French Revolution!
It was an age when heroes were made, and age when history was a blank book waiting to be written. It was the Age of Napoleon.
GURPS Basic Set and Compendium I are required to use this book in a GURPS campaign. The historical information in this book can be used with any game system.
