Battle Captains

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Battle Captains is an innovative game placing the players in the command experience of a company commander in a combined arms maneuver environment. The main book provides the core rules to fight any battle from the dawn of mechanisation in WWII to the networked battlefields of the 21st century. The rule book only contains two example forces from WWII with which to test the mechanisms.

Gameplay in Battle Captains embraces the concepts of friction, fog of war, and maneuver warfare. Players should expect to confront difficulties from not just their opponent but circumstances as well. The ability to adapt to a changing environment, subordinates failing to exercise good judgement, and all the other vagaries of war is paramount to victory in Battle Captains.

National lists, armies, units, and all other statistics required for play are found in various theater books. Each theater book provides the information and stats necessary to fight in a particular theater or war. Player’s can purchase only the theater books relevant to their collections or interests.

Updates and corrections to Battle Captains will occur and reflect within the rule book occasionally.

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.

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.
