Description

Sherwood is an introductory Tactical level wargame providing simplified rules that are based on the highly successful Cry Havoc series. The game has two levels of rules: one intended for young players (10 years and up) and those new to wargaming; a second level introduces additional rules that provide a more realistic gameplay. Finally, experienced players will be able to play with the complete rules of the Norman Saga series.
This wargame allows players to immerse themselves in the adventures of the famous Robin Hood and his band of outlaws. They will face the terrible Sheriff of Nottingham and his men in multiple skirmishes in Sherwood Forest or in the nearby village inn.

Rules are intended to simulate man-to-man combat, missile fire with bows, crossbows, or javelins. It’s possible to ambush your opponent by pouncing from trees.

The counter sheet provides close to 60 different characters in various stances: Healthy, stunned, wounded or… dead!

Box contents:
> (4) 11" x 16" (or 28 x 40 cm) full-color tactical maps
> (1) 8" x 12" (or 21 x 29.7 cm) counter sheet printed in full color
> (1) 24-page booklet including the rules; the historical background and 8 scenarios
> (1) play sheet for handy reference
> (1) 10-sided die
> (1) counter tray

Game scales:
> 1 counter = 1 character
> 1 turn = 2 seconds
> 1 map hex = +/- 2m (6 feet)
