REPUBLIC
BETA GRAND TACTICAL WARFARE IN THE AMERICAN CIVIL
WAR
Below is the beta version for the new Republic wargaming
rules for American Civil War, as converted from WTJ's Republique rules for
grand-tactical Napoleonic warfare. Each portion of the rules has been
thoroughly reviewed for period effects and updated after numerous test plays.
We are continuing to playtest the rules and encourage players to email results
of their own test games to webmaster@wtj.com. Last update: May 16,
2024.
These rules are suitable for use with all
standard miniature wargaming figures, and include all text and combat charts
needed for game play. The rules are completely free and no purchases are
required. Prospective beginners who want to learn more about miniature
wargaming will enjoy reading
