About the Game

Outremer is a man-to-man small scale combat game set in the time of the 3rd Crusade (1146).

The game is both a game by itself or can be played as an expansion to Cry Havoc and/or Siege.

As a stand-alone game it has 3 scenarios as well as a scenario generation system and 2 maps. There are rules covering a character advancement system that allows for a campaign game using the included campaign mapboard depicting the region of Palestine. It is well suited for play-by-email format and can be adapted for decent solitaire play as well.

The unit scale is one man to one counter. Each man (or woman! They are here too!) is generally represented by multiple counters or both sides of a single counter to portray healthy and wounded combatants as well as mounted and unmounted (including the horses) where applicable. Each counter has a nicely colored picture of each man with attack defense and movement values in addition to the name of the person depicted.

Integrates with:

Cry Havoc Siege.
