Editorial Review
Northern Italy - and especially Milan - at the end of the 15th century was the brutal focal point for power and control between France and the Imperialist empires of Venice and Spain. And the battles fought for this prize are a record of the changing face of how war was fought. Arquebus uses the popular "Men of Iron" mechanics with much concentration on detail of weaponry, from the differences between closed formation and open, to the decline of the Swiss (pas d'argent? pas de Suisse), and the rise of the German Landsknecht, the major force in warfare of the era and, ironically, the best-dressed men in Europe. Yes, Landsknecht uniforms literally set the fashion trend at the time for the entire western world. And to match this sartorial splendor will be the great visual look of ARQUEBUS, from the colorful units to the splendid maps and helpful charts. Most the battles are good for solitaire play, so when you're traveling to roll those dice, remember to Take The 'BUS!
Features
