Ancient Wargame Rules

These rules can be used from antiquity up until the late medieval period, they depart from the norm in that they have no rigid turn sequence. Instead players take turns to command their troops until a situation occurs which occupies the commander allowing the initiative to pass to the other player. Combat results are handled by progressively worse morale and no figures are removed from the table. As befitting my age the rules are a bewildering mixture of imperial and metric measurements. Any areas not covered should be resolved with common sense or a die roll.
