Many years ago I saw a game which was probably an ancestor of this one that covered the battles of the Duke of Marlborough: Blenheim, Ramillies, Oudenarde and Malplaquet. Could someone tell me the name of the game? If I can find a cheap second hand copy I'd like to buy it. Alternatively - is there any new game in the works which will cover the battles of the War of Spanish Succession?

BUT I doubt it would be on the second hand store :(

Thanks for your reply. I think that must be it. I will keep an eye open for it on e-bay. No plans for a remake I suppose?

You were right. I haven't been able to find a copy anywhere.

I hadn't looked on Amazon outside the UK. I've just had a look at Amazon in the U.S. and the prices went from $44.99 up to $90.00 plus international shipping. I think I'll continue to monitor ebay for the time being.
