Blocks of Glory is a tactical simulation of Napoleonic warfare that employs the "Visual Integrated Battle Engine” (VIBE) to track and visualise fluid attributes, such as a unit’s strength, morale, and speed, using physical markers and model counts. As a result, your challenge as an army commander is not to track hit points, but to manage "Command Friction" - the physical delay between an order’s conception and its execution on the front lines. Deploy your messengers and commanders effectively to win the Battle of Waterloo. This is Warplay!
