From BoardGameGeek
With the Hammer is an asymmetric wargame covering the German Peasants War in Thuringia in 1525 along with the exploits of one of its most famous protagonists - Thomas Müntzer. With the Hammer will come with wooden pieces, counters, 2 rulebooks, and historical commentary by Professor Andrew Drummond, and a 22×17 inch map. Each player is a peasant or a noble; the peasants win as a team, or the nobles win as a team. There is no true solitaire system, but like most wargames, it can be soloed two-handed.
With The Hammer has 2 videos from 2 creators: 1 playthrough and 1 unboxing. They date from 2024 to February 2025.
If you like it, try 490 BC: Marathon – Introduction Module, Rostov '41: Race to the Don, 1916 Verdun: Campaign of Attrition and 1995: Milosevic's Last Gamble, also by Ray Weiss.
