Recreate the action and drama of 17th Century warfare on your
tabletop with The Pikeman's Lament. Start by creating your Officer
- is he a natural leader raised from the ranks, the youngest son of
a noble family, or an old veteran who has seen too many battles? As
you campaign, your Officer will win honour and gain promotion,
acquiring traits that may help lead his men to victory. Before each
skirmish, your Officer must raise his Company from a wide range of
unit options - should he lean towards hard-hitting heavy cavalry or
favour solid, defensively minded infantry? Companies are typically
formed from 6-8 units, each made up of either 6 or 12 figures, and
quick, decisive, and dramatic games are the order of the day. With
core mechanics based on Daniel Mersey's popular Lion Rampant rules,
The Pikeman's Lament captures the military flavour of the 17th
Century, and allows you to recreate skirmishes and raids from
conflicts such as the Thirty Years' War, the English Civil Wars,
and the Great Northern War.
