Napoleon's Wheel is the next games from OSG's The Library of Napoleonic Battles series. Details on the series are below, as all the games share a common rules set and game system.
Napoleon's Wheel will be the last TLNB entry to include cards.
The card deck in Napoleon's Wheel will be a universal (common) deck that will be the official card deck for all games to follow. (This deck will be available separately on OSG's online store.) Once you have a copy of this common deck you won't need another. The retail price of the games appearing after Napoleon's Wheel will be reduced to reflect the printing and manufacturing savings.
