This is a simple and fast paced rule set to re-fight the battles of the Thirty Years and English Civil Wars with miniatures. Gott mit uns! They use an area system with the battlefield being divided into a grid of squares, this eliminates the need for measurement whilst creating the `Linie of Bataille` tactics of the period. Any figure scale or basing system can be used with the basic game units representing Tercios, Infantry Brigades and Regiments of Horse. The game is capable of handling the largest of the historical battles of the period in a matter of three or four hours. —description from the publisher
