With Sword and Shield: Fantasy Mass Combat Rules társasjáték

Angol leírás

With Sword and Shield is a miniatures game of mass combat, set in any world you wish to imagine!
Field armies composed of unruly hordes, stalwart men-at-arms, thundering cavalry, fantastic creatures, gigantic constructs, great war engines, powerful wizards, iconic heroes and brave leaders in an attempt to crush your opponents on the field of battle.

The game uses simple differential mechanics to determine combat outcomes, and pass/fail/critical failure gradients for casting spells.
Casualties are removed in ranks, or individual bases for characters, and units that fails to recover from Command Hits may rout from play.

With Sword and Shield supports miniature scales from 3mm up to ‘heroic’ 28mm, and includes:
