About Warriors of God: The Wars of England & France, 1135-1453, from BoardGameGeek:
International Game Series game from Multi-Man Publishing.
The 100 Years War was a pivotal event in medieval European history. In Warriors of God, Multi-Man Publishing and Game Journal Magazine have joined hands to bring a unique perspective to this conflict.
As always, playability matched with historical accuracy has been achieved to a remarkable degree. Players move their leaders and units using a unique impulse game system that shows both the strategy and tactics of the period. The game also recreates the massive swings of fortune which were so much a part of the Hundred Years War.
Even with such a simple and easily learned system, all the special rules necessary to give players a full feel for the period are here: archers, Joan of Arc, and much, much more.
Warriors of God was designed by Makoto Nakajima, English development was by Adam Starkweather, with graphic design by Mark Mahaffey and counter illustrations by Niko Eskubi.
