Chosen Men is a set of fast-action skirmish rules detailing the
bloody skirmishes between light troops in the Napoleonic Wars. The
primary focus of the game is on soldiers and NCOs in light 'flank'
companies, as they scout ahead of larger forces and take part in
man-to-man actions against enemy skirmishers. Although the game
allows for the formation of accurately sized companies of light
infantry and cavalry if you wish, these formations are broken down
into small groups of up to a dozen men. For the most part, officers
are not swashbuckling super-heroes, but staunch commanders who
rally and direct their men to achieve the battlefield objectives.
Although the game uses an alternating action turn sequence,
officers can use their influence on multiple units at the same time
in an effort to steal the initiative. With all rolls resolved using
standard 6-sided dice, this game combines a classic wargaming feel
with modern wargame mechanics.
