Battles of Medieval Britain: A Solitaire Wargame

About this board game

Battles of Medieval Britain: A Solitaire Wargame is a one-player wargame for approximately 30 minutes, covering battles fought in Britain between 937 and 1403.

You command the forces in each scenario while the book provides the opposing enemy. Your armies and units vary from battle to battle, with units often representing many hundreds of men, and each game challenges you to achieve specific objectives.

The battles are representations of historical conflicts from the medieval period. Because the exact details of many engagements remain uncertain—including the weapons used, the size of the armies, and sometimes the battle locations—some scenarios include deliberate changes or additions designed to improve the play experience.

• Solitaire play with the book controlling the enemy
• Historical battles spanning the years 937 to 1403
• Random setup for initial forces
• Random composition and location of reinforcements
• Quick-to-learn rules designed to get you into the action

Randomized forces and reinforcements give the scenarios replayability, while the different armies, units, and objectives create varied challenges across the included battles. You can attempt to reproduce history—or try to recreate it through your own decisions on the battlefield.

Designed to be clear, accessible, and fast to learn, Battles of Medieval Britain offers a focused way to explore fierce and bloody medieval warfare. You will need at least four standard six-sided dice, with six preferred.
