Norman Conquests: Men of Iron Volume V

A collection of historical tactical battles from the 11th–13th centuries focused on Norman forces and their opponents across Italy and England. Players command divisional-sized units on detailed hex maps (roughly 110 yards per hex, units ~250 men) and resolve combat, movement and command via counters and dice. Scenarios cover engagements such as papal clashes in southern Italy, the 1066 contests for the English throne, succession fights in Normandy, and mid-13th-century baronial wars. Design supports one or two players, with scenarios scaled to 1–5 hours; components include large maps, counters, scenario/battle book and player aids for setup and play.
