Miniature Flags for Historical Miniature Gamers and Collectors. Complete 10mm Game System and Products for the Napoleonic Wars (La Petite Armée) and American Civil War (LPA:ACW, Limited Edition).

If you have been thinking of getting into war gaming the Napoleonic period, you’ve probably been overwhelmed by the questions, choices, and amount of information and advice out there.  What scale of figures?  What level of command when choosing the rules, and then which of the dozens of rules available do you use?  How and where do I get the terrain?  Will I be able to find an opponent who has made the same decisions I have?

The decisions may seem endless and daunting to a new gamer so I have created the LPA Complete 10mm Napoleonic System.  It is just what it claims to be – COMPLETE! – a ready to play game right out of the box.  It’s not like some “complete” starter sets that give you a couple of bags of unpainted miniatures a set of rules and a couple of paper buildings.  Each LPA Complete 10mm Napoleonic System comes with two painted 10mm armies, one French and your choice of a British, Russian, Prussian, or Austrian army as an opponent – over two-hundred figures and guns already mounted on flocked, magnetic movement stands and metal magnetic brigade stands with the appropriate national flag.  You also get all the terrain you need to set up an attractive 3’x2’ battlefield including three 2’x1’ battleboards, six hills, eight buildings, twenty trees, four fields, four stone wall sections, four sections of hedges, one stone bridge, and material for roads and rivers – and everything is already painted and/or assembled.  You get a set of rules, La Petite Armée, with reference cards, markers, casualty caps, and markers – even dice and rulers.  And everything comes packed complete in a handy, portable box for easy transport.  And you don’t have to worry if someone else has the same scale figures or plays the same rules.  Since each game is complete, all you need is an opponent ready to play.  Games with the basic set, representing a Corps of 15,000 plus men on each side, can be played to completion in 2-3 hours.

Many of my customers have purchased just the basic game system and fought dozens of enjoyable battles over the years without every feeling the need to expand what they have.  Others have added additional games, armies, terrain, etc, to fight the size battles they are looking for.  I myself have the equivalent of four games worth of terrain and over 2300 figures in my set.  It is up to you. If any of these apply to you, then welcome to the world of Le Petit Armée Complete 10mm Napoleonic System. This system is designed to provide you with one-stop shopping when it comes to your Napoleonic gaming needs. LPA is based upon a set of rules of the same name, and every item you need to play using those rules can be obtained using this system.

And LPA is not just for gamers new to the Napoleonic period.  I myself have been gaming for over thirty years and many of my customers are also experienced players who have been attracted by the smaller scale, easy to learn and play rules, and overall look of the LPA system.
