16 years after the revolution that caused the reigning monarch to flee (only
to be killed in transit), a village boy has been identified as being the heir,
apparently.
This means you (as one of the schemeing coutiers) have dispatched a force to
snatch the "king" from the village to futher your political plots.
Some rules.
There will be (up to) four players each fielding 300 points of TL3 (Yes three,
perhaps muskets and cannons will be interesting) army. 1 commander per army
and other troop ratios apply (see rules for details). No magic, no
restrictions on numbers of horses (contra to previous posits).
The gamemaster will have some local militia, pesant farmery types and 5 king-
canditates. To discover which of the king-candiates is the King, you will
require 1 turn of questioning by a hero (or your commander)
You must delare to the gamemaster (me or someone else if they want the job)
your political affiliation before battle commences. If you are a Monarchist
you can score 75 points by taking the King off the field of play. If you are a
Republican you can't score this bonus, you can however kill the King (very
handy if someone else is about to snatch him.) You cannot change your
affiliation partway through the game.
There will be four special locations.
A chapel, this will act as a sick bay with attendent medics.
A forge, this will act as a repair bay with attendent mechanics.
A barracks, control of this means control of the militia.
A Town Hall, control of this means control of the pesants.
The game ends when
Someone takes the king out of the playing area (75pts)
Someone becomes the last player alive (50 pts)
Someone controls all four special locations (10pts each at end of game)
12 turns have elapsed
The points scored may or may not be carried over to the next game, depending
on how this all goes.
{if we can agree, each player will build one of these locations to bring along
with some houses/village scenery}
Standard disclamer: feel free to change the bits that look messy, nod head
vaguely or send me lego bricks.

| (...) <snip rules> This looks like a lot of fun. If I was an Aussie, or visiting, I'd love to play. :) We are holding a similar game this weekend (objectives, et. al.) Let me know how your game goes. Jason (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
