Dominion of Pike and Shot társasjáték

Angol leírás

Dominion of Pike and Shot is a very very simple set of solo wargames rules, built on the Dominion of the Spear game engine, allowing one to fight two Renaissance armies (1495 - 1667 AD) against each other in around ten minutes.
They are written for the game to generate a plausible and with some imagination an amusing narrative.
Although figures can be used, battles can easily be fought on paper (no measuring) using pen or pencil and two different coloured six sided dice.

95 army lists are included divided into the periods: Italian Wars, Ottoman Turk Wars, Northern and Eastern Europe, England and Scotland and Ireland, Dutch Revolt (80 Years War), French Wars of Religion, Thirty Years War, English Civil Wars, Wars of the Polish Deluge, and Around the World. Armies consist of 3-6 units or commands and the points system is included. There is a complete play through of a battle between a French army and a Spanish army in the latter part of the Italian Wars.

A very brief introduction to Renaissance Warfare, and Designer Notes are included along with a quick reference sheet on the back cover.
The rules include rules for pre-battle artillery bombardments, artillery, rallying units, Spanish Tercios, and different types of cavalry such as Reiters and Cuirassiers.
