Watch “Command & Control mechanics in (Napoleonic) Wargaming - Are they historically accurate?,” a board game interview on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Potan's War - ASMR for Men on YouTube:
Today, with cooperation with WASP wargaming club, I bring you an unique video that started over a beer, but my friend Dalibor managed to convince Jakub Samek to do a short interview for his blog, in which they take a look at some of the mechanics we know from Napoleonic wargaming games. Jakub Samek is one of the leading members of the Central European Napoleonic Society, co-organizer of the Battle of Austerlitz, and runs the Austerlitz.org website where you can find a number of great works and translations from his pen.
And with permission from both, the originally czech article is now this video!

About Black Powder: Second Edition, from BoardGameGeek:
Miniature Wargame rules for the era of horse and musket 1700-1900.
If you can think of nothing finer than taking to the field of battle to refight great battles such as Quatre Bras, Bunker Hill, Rourke's Drift, Blenheim, Gettysburg, and more, you'll be needing a copy of Black Powder.
Black Powder is very much a game for gentlemen gamers. Gamers who cherish the finer things in life such as wonderfully painted armies, fighting over luxurious terrain and doing so in the company of friends. No need for the use of protractors to wheel a unit. Arguments over whether a charge is 2mm out of range are not something you'll need to worry about. In essence it's a very relaxing game that can produce stunning conflicts - conflicts that can see one side appear doomed only for them to pull victory from the icy grasp of Mistress Defeat!
The book itself is glorious. Hardback covers binding 184 full-colour pages filled with atmospheric anecdotes and the most sumptuous photographs of model soldiers you will have seen. It's every wargamer's dream!
The 2nd Edition was published in August 2018.
