|
Battle is a game that, once learned, may be used to recreate any battle fought before the use of repeating firearms in 1865. The motivating concept is to develop a game that will aid players in building table top gaming skills, in order to better understand the minds of the men who have built, conquered, ruled and ruined the world.
