À propos du jeu

En anglais

The Fate of Reiters: Five Battles of the French Wars of Religion 1562-1598 is a new game of the series Par le Feu, le Fer et la Foi (in English: "By Shot, Shock and Faith") and allows the simulation of the Religious Wars that occurred in France from 1562 to 1598. This civil war opposes, in a first conflict phase, Protestants - otherwise known as Huguenots - to Catholics, then Royalists to Holy League members after the accession of Henry IV to the throne in 1589. The art of war during this period of the Renaissance is rapidly changing. The great feudal landlords, steeped in morals, fight alongside mercenaries motivated by sole cupidity. The diversity of the weapons that are used offers great tactical possibilities, based on impact and fire. Gendarmes, cuirassiers, reiters, harquebusiers, lansquenets and Swiss mercenaries confront each other in a merciless fight. The Fate of Reiters is a Grand-Tactical board-wargame which, for the first time, allows the simulation of five battles of that era: COGNAT : January 6th, 1568 DORMANS : October 10th, 1575 AUNEAU : November 24th, 1587 VIMORY : October 26th, 1587 METRIEUX (aka VIRE-CULS) December 10th, 1587 This is a classic wargame « I go, You go » ststem, of average complexity, including, during the active player's phase, a sequence of reaction from the passive player, such as fire, counter-charge or tactical backstep. The maps are with areas from 300 to 500 meters by side. A color code allows to easily determine the costs of movements and the line of sight. The scale of the game is one unit for 100 to 500 soldiers or one or two guns. One game turn represent a duration of 20 to 30 minutes. A corps represents either a vanguard or a rearguard, or the main body called "battle". The combats allow to simulate charges « in wall », the merciless shocks between pikemen, the artillery fire and highlight, by a support system, the combination of iron -shock- and fire -shooting. The optional rules- caracoles, orders, lost children, looting- add even more realism to the era's battles. The rules and the five battles offered are based on a thorough bibliography and researches made into books written by contemporary authors, specifically François de la Noue for the Protestants and Blaise de Montluc for the Catholics, and also on precise topographical plans of each battlefield that is still accessible... Are you ready to put on the Henri de Guise, Duke of Lorraine and fight your enemies the famous German mercenaries ? The Fate of Reiters is the second opus of Par le Feu, le Fer et le Foi (By Shot, Shock and Faith). This new HEXASIM wargame offers you this option with an innovating and elegant game. —description from the publisher
