About the Game

Description from the publisher:

Horse and Musket: Sport of Kings is the first expansion to Horse & Musket: Dawn of an Era. This volume will cover warfare from 1721-1748, when linear musket combat approached its apogee. Large armies of well drilled infantry used volley fire and bayonet charges in set piece battles. Horsemen were used almost exclusively for charges, and artillery was increasingly mobile. Great commanders such as Nader Shah and Maurice de Saxe left their stamp on military history. The period also saw the emergence of Frederick II of Prussia, known to most as Frederick the Great.
