Overview

"Marignan 1515" is a wargame simulation of the great battle between the army of Francis I, King of France and the mighty Swiss army during the Italian Wars. The French army is a combination of cavalry, artillery and infantry, while the Swiss army is a new reincarnation of the Macedonian phalanx. Two scenarios are covered: the first is set only during the first day of the battle, and the second simulates the two days of the engagement with the reorganization of the armies during the night. Both players objective is to rout or completely destroy the opposing army. The wargame, published in Vae Victis issue #3, includes one map, rules, unmounted counters and game charts.
