About Limits of Glory: Maida 1806, from BoardGameGeek:

By the close of 1805 the Third Coalition, which had been orchestrated by William Pitt, was in tatters following their catastrophic defeat at Austerlitz. However, in late 1805 a tiny Anglo-Russian army, sent by Pitt and paid for by the British government, disembarks in the Bay of Naples to support Ferdinand IV, King of the Two Sicilies. This army, commanded by the Russian General Lacy with the support of the British General Craig, approximately 15,000 men strong, is now the only Coalition force on mainland Europe. Will they be able to defend Naples, or will they evacuate leaving the wretched Neapolitan army to its fate? Will Marshal Massena secure the Two Sicilies for his Emperor, or will the Coalition be able to save Ferdinand's last stronghold, the island of Sicily itself? The Limits of Glory series examines the influence of 'skill and luck' on the commanders present in a campaign. A Glory rating is attributed to all the significant participants in the campaign, made up from the skill they exhibited and the luck from which they benefited. Players must make difficult decisions as to when to use their commanders Glory to mitigate the situation on the board to their advantage by attempting to manage favourable and unfavourable events thrown up by the Event Clock as the campaign unfolds.
