1796 Campaign variant for AH Empires in Arms, version 3 (Feb 5, 2011), format: PDF, by Warren K. Bruhn, unofficial user created variant, nothing to do with Avalon Hill or ADG.

Starts in April 1796, with Bonaparte now in command of the French Army of Italy, about to start his rise to power. Austria is very strong, and is the only continental power left at war with France. The variant is supposed to cover the entire period from April 1796 until December 1815, but can be stopped earlier with a percentage of VP target computation to determine a winner or winners. This version of the variant uses only those leader counters which came in the original game and in the 1792 variant published in the General magazine.

Unlike the 1792 campaign variant, there is no guillotine, no agricultural disruption, and no foraging problem, but France is not yet dominant. A lot of stuff has been stripped out since versions 1 & 2 were published. Now there is a more rational way for France to gain dominant land power status. There is a mass of optional rules which may be ignored. This version probably isn't perfect, but it is hopefully good enough now for somebody to playtest the variant. Looking forward to some feedback from readers and users of the variant.
