Warmaster

A fantasy miniatures wargame that models large-scale battles at the regiment and brigade level using 10mm figures. Players supply their own miniatures and terrain and resolve combat at the stand level, rolling dice per stand to determine hits and removing whole stands as casualties reduce a unit’s strength. Command and control uses a leader Command factor: issuing orders requires two dice against that factor, and subsequent orders against the same command become progressively harder. Turns are variable in length as a result, producing a move-and-counter flow where sequence and limited command success shape outcomes. Supplemental army lists and annuals expand forces and scenarios.
