The Barons' War Rulebook

In the Kingdom of England by 1215, a group of powerful barons had reached breaking point due to King John's despotic rule, high taxes and failed leadership. It was time to rebel!

Written by Andy Hobday, these rules enable narrative-driven tabletop games set in an England gripped by civil war played out against the backdrop of the Magna Carter and the invasion by the Crown Prince of France.

The historically themed gameplay is fast-paced and tactical. With warriors of this period being pretty similar, it is easy to base your medieval skirmish games using these rules in any setting.

This comprehensive flick-through video by Wargames Illustrated takes you through the rulebook section by section presenting a clear overview.

[NB: This is the revised rulebook v2.1]

Outremer Supplement Book

Outremer (French: outre-mer, lit. 'overseas'), also known as The Crusader States, is a political hotbed granting ambitious Frankish Barons the opportunity to make a reputation for themselves. This new battleground dominated by a scorching sun, inhospitable terrain and lethal new foes provides fresh challenges for any Commander.

Choose to create a retinue from the Armies of Outremer - settled franks, crusaders or the military orders. Alternatively, select from the myriad of warriors that comprise the cultured Forces of Islam, led by a sultan or emir of a particular Askar.

New rules, named characters and a linked scenario-driven campaign, Peril on the Pilgrim Road, encourage you to recreate warfare in the crusader states using the award-winning The Barons' War rules.

This A5 softback rulebook contains 140 pages (with original wraparound cover art by Peter Dennis) which include the background to Outremer, rules (of course) &retinue lists.
