The Pikeman's Lament: Pike and Shot Wargaming Rules



ecreate 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.
