About the game

What is With Pike and Musket: Sixteenth- and Seventeenth- Century Battles for the Wargamer

With Pike and Musket: Sixteenth- and Seventeenth- Century Battles for the Wargamer is a book that contains Wesencraft's 16th and 17th Century Wargaming rules plus Twenty-eight scenarios from the English Civil War.

The English Civil War is not a satisfactory name as it started in Scotland and spread to Ireland before reaching England. This classic book arms the reader with a working knowledge of the weapons and their uses, then presents suggested rules of play which will enable the table-top general to manoeuvre and fight in the manner of Charles I, Rupert, Essex, Cromwell, and the rest.

No less than twenty-seven battles of the period are described, including the numbers engaged, types of troops, battle maps and objectives. More than three hundred years after the dust of battle has settled, once again the New Model Army faces Newcastle's Whitecoats across a low valley. The outcome will depend upon the ability of the reader. Run out the guns and let the battle commence!
