Campaigns

[simply4est]

I was just looking at a review of an old quad game Seven Days Battles where the four battles could be strung together as a campaign (one battle's results affecting the start of the next), and it occurred to me that may be a good idea to run on Battle Cry. Has anyone tried this, or maybe with Napoleon's battles?

Have not really looked into it, but I am not sure how well that would work in Battle Cry. I know it is largely random die rolls and skill, but a lot of the scenarios in Battle Cry favor one army over the other. My fear is that if you used a running campaign where the last battle affects the next one, you might be hard pressed as one of the armies to have a chance if you loose the first few battles handily.
With the way Battle Cry's campaign is currently set up, you can be slaughtered in a few consecutive battles and still win the war using the later battles to get back into the game.
