What is Archworld
The games system of Archworld is designed with several purposes in mind:
1) To explain in terms of wargaming the capabilities of the armies and the peoples of the Archworld campaign setting
2) To provide a simple yet realistic set of rules that will cover ancient, medieval, and early gunnery periods.
One of the reasons behind the genesis of the Archworld rules has been an attempt to respond to the needs and complaints of many wargamers who feel that most of the ancient warfare rules now available are far too complex. Too many of these game systems require an excessive amount of log keeping and the use of overly long sets of tables. A need for referees and a lot of pencil pushing detracts from the enjoyment of the game.
