Shadow of the Eagle

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars are one of the most tempting and popular of military periods to wargame. The paradox is that the period can also be intimidating to those wishing to game it – there is so much to know and understand.

Shadow of the Eagles was written to make the period more accessible, by providing a set of rules a little simpler than many of the popular sets.

Experienced Napoleonic gamers may appreciate a relatively straightforward alternative to the other excellent rule sets already available.

We think Shadow of the Eagles is an enjoyable and easy to learn game. We hope you like it.

VIEWABLE COPY -  NON PRINTABLE - This is a tablet friendly version for the wargamer on the go. Please consider purchasing the hard copy version when it becomes available if you want a printed version of the rules.

No Steven. Just the rules.

And if you click on 'full size preview' the introduction tells you the same thing.

It does say on the cover 'Rules Only Version'.

beware, in case you feel the only difference is the fact this is pdf vs physical book ..... this does not have the full book contents - only the rules - none of the ancillary material in the 140 page physical book is included. I think the descriptions is quite misleading and should spell this out clearly to avoid confusion and potential disappointment - esp for those living outside the UK who may choose this format to avoid high postage costs.

Gentlemen, I feel your pain. If you want to get an idea of what you're buying, simply search for shadowoftheeagles.com and go to the 'About the Rules' page. If that's not enough, all your questions will be answered on the Forum.

Thanks.

I am surprised that instead of apologising and getting Wargame Vault to put better details in both the product title and the product description you would treat customers which such contempt. How on earth do you think it's reasonable -- and as the author, no less -- to tell potential customers to go and look up details elsewhere for themselves? Don't you think that is the purpose of the product description here? It should not even require looking further at the the thumb print and preview. It should be there clearly in the product description. YOU know what's not in the pdf product.

So, "If you want to get an idea of what you're buying", you go to another site! -- you know how ridiculous that sounds?

Heck of a price for a 48page non-printable pdf.
Think I'll pass.

Need to have more preview material to look at - the price is pretty high for a download product and there is no way of telling what these rules are like without a look at some of the mechanics.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
