Outremer: Faith and Blood: Skirmish Wargames in the Crusades 28mm skirmish wargame featuring small groups of warriors fighting in Outremer during the Crusades.

Character development is key, and a wide range of troop options and factions allows a high degree of individuality and personalization. Players will also be able to recruit mercenaries and agents such as Hashashin and Varangian survivors to bolster their forces – potent but expensive additions that will add a distinct flavor to each encounter. $19.00 USD
