Battles of Medieval Britain - A Solitaire Wargame

Battles of Medieval Britain covers battles fought between the year 937 and 1403. By modern standards, the forces on each side were small in size, but battles were fierce and bloody and were no place for the faint-hearted. In many cases the exact details of the battle have never been fully established, including what weapons were used, the scale of the armies on each side, and even exactly where the battles took place.

The battles in this book are only meant to be loose representations of the actual battles they depict, and in some cases deliberate changes or additions have been made to add to the play experience. But they will provide some idea of what happened at each Battle, and allow the Player to try to reproduce, or recreate, history.

In the game, the Player will be commanding various units, often representing many hundreds of men each, seeking to achieve various Objectives. Key battles from different years are included, although all fall into what is generally referred to as the medieval period. The Player will control various different armies and units depending on the battle.

This book is a solitaire wargame. You play the game, and the book will provide the "enemy". You will need at least 4, but preferably 6, standard six-sided dice.
