In the renaissance families like the Medici stood up to seize power. People like Machiavelli wrote books about Utilitarianism and real-politik. Condottieri roamed the Italian landscape searching for fame and fortune. It was a time full of feud and vendettas. Even Shakespeare wrote a piece about love and hate between two families in Verona, the Capulets and the Montagues (better known as Romeo and Juliet). What better time and place to set up a skirmish game? L'Assassino contains the rules for a miniature tabletop skirmish game for 28mm scale miniatures set during renaissance. It focuses on urban strive. This game can be played with one player. But you may want to add a little competition when played with more than one player. —description from the publisher
