1-249751

Covers tabletop warfare in Britain during the civil wars of the seventeenth century. The rules allow players to fight large scale land battles with a simple to use and enjoyable gaming system. Recreate large scale battles such as those fought at Edgehill, Newbury, Marston Moor, Naseby, Dunbar, and Worcester. Applicable for any scale, designed for brigade-size. Rules have a very simple system based on a D6; a score of five or more will achieve success, a score of four or lower means failure. Included are a series of random events or Hazards that cover such situations as troops running low on ammunition, friendly fire, artillery powder explosions, and a whole host of other misfortunes. Army lists break down each campaign by year so that players can command a West Country Royalist army in 1643 or a Parliamentary army in the North in 1644. Also included are unit cards.
