Welcome to Shako and Musket 1810 - 1827, free wargame rules for Simon Bolivar and San Martins Liberation Wars.
These free wargame rules are part of
the ' Age of Musket' series which covers the era of the Musket from
1690 to 1865 .
These rules cover the Wars of Simon Bolivar and San Martin, The independence wars in South America.
Simon Bolivar and San Martin lead armies that liberated Argentina, Venezuela, Columbia, Chile and Peru from Spanish rule.
The battle not large by European standards and definitely of the grand Napoleonic scale.
The quality of the troops varied from Spanish militia that was raised in South America to the veterans of the Peninsula War and Waterloo.
The rules are intended to be quick and easy to use , with minimal
die rolling and sensible morale and casualty result's .
The rules can also be used for large and modest sized games with figures
of differing scales .
These rules have been play tested by myself to test out different scenario's to see how they resolve .
It is recommended that the rules be used in their present form to
reflect the battles of the period .
These rules are in PDF format, ( aprox. 100kb ) for ease of access
and printing. If you do not have Adobe
Acrobat for reading PDF files
