Description

Battles of the English Civil War: A Solitaire Wargame drops you into the midst of 17th century England, where you'll navigate the tumultuous landscape of the English Civil War as a solo commander. Designed by Mike Lambo and released in 2022, this game is easy to learn and can be played in as little as 20 minutes, with games typically lasting around 20 to 50 minutes. With its unique blend of dice rolling, hexagon grid movement, and action/event mechanics, you'll be fully immersed in the conflict, making tactical decisions and adapting to the challenges that arise. The game's solitaire design means you can play at your own pace, using the dice rolling and re-rolling mechanics to control the flow of battle, and with the locking mechanism, you'll need to think strategically about which units to commit to the fight. The simple rules mean you can dive right in and start playing, and the game's themes of pike and shot warfare will transport you to a bygone era of military history.
