Back to HISTORICAL
The Renaissance is a fascinating period, as the technology of warfare starts to develop, and as inventive minds dedicate themselves to re-inventing warfare.
Although naval wargaming exists for this period, it is land warfare in the Renaissance - the so-called "Pike and Shot" period - which is most popular.
