Quatre Bras: Stalemate on the Brussels Road

Modern Conquest and War Games

Quatre Bras: Stalemate on the Brussels Road is a board wargame published by Simulations Publications Inc in 1976 that simulates the Battle of Quatre Bras, one of the engagements leading up to the Battle of Waterloo during the Napoleonic Wars. Designed by Kevin Zucker and Jay Nelson, with cartography and graphic design by Redmond A. Simonsen, the two-player game recreates the clash between Wellington's Anglo-allied forces and Marshal Ney's French corps on 16 June 1815, using a hex-and-counter format typical of SPI's Napoleonic wargame line.
