Elf Knyghte Pyke & Sworde is Nordic Weasel Games entry into mass fantasy skirmish. Capable of handling up to 30-40 single based figures in units of 3 or 6, the game is designed to be fun with much smaller forces as well. An introduction game might only have 7 or 8 figures in it.
The rules use broad troop classes such as Charge, Missile and Fire units, allowing you to adapt a historical or fantastical army easily to the game table.
Based on the original KPS rules, this version adds:
6 Power Sources that your characters can draw upon (Divinity, Leadership, Expertise, Might, Luck, Sorcery)
4 Paths of Magic with 8 spells each.
15 fantasy peoples.
22 monsters to use in scenarios.
26 magical items.
As well as all the features of the original game including campaign guidelines and scenario suggestions.
AND new material like battlefield events.
A points system is also included so you can play pick up games straight away.
The game is playable with any single based fantasy figures usually organised in units of 3 or 6 figures.
AND while the new book is full of cool fantasy stuff, you can of course still play out historical battles with players having used the rules for everything from vikings to Romans to Japanese pike and shot skirmishes.
The rules also include a license to publish your own scenarios and campaigns using EKPS rules.
