Revolution: The Wargame

An AR engine for tabletop historical wargaming

Revolution: the Wargame is a tabletop miniature wargaming system developed by Jacobin Games for the French Revolutionary Period (1792-1805). In its core, Revolution: the Wargame plays like your traditional card-based miniature wargame, players get to assign orders, roll dice, and enact battles with physical miniatures on a physical table. But Revolution: the Wargame is also modernized by the inclusion of a mobile application specifically designed to enhance the gaming experience. The application acts both as the rulebook and game master, with additional features including server-supported solo campaign systems, multiplayer modes, and more.

Historic Battles featured at Launch:
Second Battle of Saorgio
Loano
Dego
Lincelles
Tourcoing (3 Scenarios)
Neerwinden (2 Scenarios)
Fleurus
All in addition to a full army builder, 9 modular pick up play scenarios and the Fictional Fernig Sisters Co-op Campaign!

Revolution: the Wargame features:
- Simple, clean tabletop gameplay that keeps what we all love while ridding the table of clutter and confusion. That means more room to admire your models or terrain, and to roll your dice more aggressively!
- Organic rules management through on-screen tooltips and links *directly integrated into gameplay*. We can't imagine why any app wouldn't have this!
- A Simultaneous and Secret command system that will finally break free of the IGOUGO. This will both speed up the games but also better simulate the fog-of-war.
- Immersive gameplay design meant to confront players with the comparable challenges & lenses of a commander of the time.
- *Optional* command timer systems to encourage fast, fun, & furious gaming. Learn to speedily manage your subordinates and experience the true pressure undergone by battlefield commanders!
- Campaigns & linked battle scenarios, whether they be run solo, on a club night, or over months with a large group.
- Enhanced Solo options for scenarios, campaigns and tutorials. What's the point of having a computer be part of the game if we can't use it to enable a major leap forward in solo gaming?
- Free living content updates. No one should have to use clumsy errata and FAQs, let alone wait years for basic, common sense house-rulings to correct design oversights & exploits that no company is immune to. *We will continuously absorb community feedback and update rules for accuracy and gameplay balance for free over the long term.*
