I, Napoleon: The Limits of Glory

I, Napoleon is a solo biographical card game that puts you in the shoes of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1793 and allows you to explore the paths his life might have taken until his death in 1821. Despite having 222 cards ranging from Napoleon’s Marshals to his mistresses, his life was so packed with incidents (and what-ifs?) that I couldn’t fit everything I wanted into the original design. Thus, today we are announcing an expansion, I, Napoleon: The Limits of Glory.

You don’t need this expansion to play the original, which is complete as designed. I, Napoleon: The Limits of Glory offers new events, people, politics, and possibilities, but it also adds some complexity, more cards to shuffle and keep track of, and as much as two hours of additional playtime. You will meet new Commanders (Suchet you say?), new lovers, new political allies, and new enemies (including the Russian Imperial Guard!). The cards increase the importance of Political Points in the game as you will need them to deal with unrest from both Jacobins and Royalists. The Spanish Ulcer will be a bigger problem, with three new Expedition cards to deal with. And the Portugal Box on the map will finally get some use with Portugal’s Royal Family.
