This 19th-Century game may be the earliest ever based on a specific Napoleonic battle, with the board showing a fairly detailed map of the area around the city. (While undated, it probably pre-dates Parker Bros. 1895 Waterloo.)

The game is for 2 - 7 players, each of whom plays the role of one of the Coalition commanders advancing on Napoleon's central position: Blucher or von Bulow for the Prussians, von Schwartzenberg or von Klenau for the Austrians, Benningsen or Prinz Eugen for the Russians, or Karl Johann Bernadotte of Sweden.

Each player has a unique track toward Leipzig as well as an illustrated player card with a biography on the front and rules governing each of the red-colored points along that player's track. Each turn, a player throws three D6, and if the result is 9 or higher, advances his piece one space. Each red space has an additional requirement that can lead to penalties or bonuses. Each track also has a battle to be won along the way (with the map noting the defending French commander). Moving past the battle requires a roll of 10 or higher on 2D6.

Players put 6 marks in the pot to start, and may lose or win money from the pot along the way. The first player to reach Leipzig (space 14) wins whatever pot remains.
