Book Description/Synopsis:
The Dark Age of Britain, from the middle of the 4th century to the end of
the 8th, was a time of violence and warfare when charismatic warlords such as
the fabled King Arthur could gather together armies and carve out their own
kingdoms. With this new set of wargames rules, players can take on the role of
these warlords and command their own armies on the tabletop.Dux Bellorum
is an element-based system where each base of figures represents 50 fighting
men. Each player has a specific number of points with which to construct his
force and can choose a Late Roman, Romano-British, Welsh, Saxon, Pictish, Irish
or Sea Raider army amongst others. The game is then played out following a set
of simple, fast-paced rules. A completely self-contained gaming system, Dux
Bellorum is perfect for gamers who are looking for a way into fighting Dark
Age battles without investing a lot of time or money in larger rulesets.
