Description

Transport your battles back to the age of swords and sandals with John Lambshead's comprehensive guide to reenacting Ancient and Medieval wargames. Building on the success of his One-Hour Skirmish Wargames, this new edition brings the action to a bygone era, where legionaries, hoplites, and war elephants clash in a whirlwind of steel and sand.

These streamlined rules, designed for fast-paced, card-driven gameplay, allow you to focus on tactical decisions and have fun, rather than getting bogged down in complex rules. With no dice required, you can concentrate on the thrill of battle, from slingers to chariots and stampeding elephants. Sample force lists, a points system, and scenarios are included to help you get started.

As the author explains, these rules are a toolkit, not a set of rigid tournament rules. Adaptation and customization are encouraged, so you can tailor the game to your specific armies or sub-period. With its unique blend of period flavour and simplicity, this book is perfect for anyone looking to add a new dimension to their wargaming hobby.
