📖 About This Game

Spanish Ulcer is a wargame that covers the seven year (1808-1814) campaign of the French Army against the Spanish, Portuguese & British Armies within the Iberian Peninsula. It is a card-driven game with a point-to-point that features the important cities, towns, ports & fortresses of the campaign. Both sides underestimated the difficulties and importance of this campaign - can you learn from their folly and do better? Or will you suffer needlessly from The Spanish Ulcer?
