THE TERRIBLE WAR BETWEEN SWITZERLAND AND BORGOGNONS 15th century

The Burgundian wars were formally a conflict between the Duke of Burgundy and France led by the Valois dynasty, in which the Swiss Confederation was involved and played a decisive role.

The war itself broke out in 1474 and in the following years the Duke of Burgundy, Charles I known as the Bold, was defeated by Swiss soldiers three times on the battlefield, the firsttime at Grandson, and Morat/Murten and after killed in the battle of Nancy.

Now these soldiers will be at your disposal to obtain, with little effort, entire armies of battalions of infantry, squadrons of cavalry, batteries of cannons, houses and buildings, trees and much more material needed to create the scenes of your battle. We also explain tricks and modes for a good assembly of the pieces, as well as the official rules for playing wargame. All in 50 pages full of hundreds of soldiers supplied in the standard scale of 25/28mm that you can, for personal use only, photocopy on thicker cardboard and thus get armed with the desired size. So what are you waiting for? Wear the general commander's shoulder pads, equip yourself with a capable table, a practical ruler to measure, a pair of dice and get ready to lead hundreds or thousands of armed in epic and exciting battles of history!
