Fast, Accessible, and Enjoyably Old‑School Medieval Wargaming

Trial by Battle is a streamlined tabletop miniatures wargame ruleset designed to let you fight exciting medieval battles quickly and without complexity. Whether you’re a seasoned wargamer looking for a relaxed “beer and pretzels” game, or a newcomer wanting an easy entry point into historical miniatures, these rules are built to get armies on the table and dice rolling fast.

Set in the Medieval period, Trial by Battle captures the feel of historical warfare without getting bogged down in charts, special cases, or excessive bookkeeping. The emphasis is on clear mechanics, meaningful decisions, and enjoyable gameplay rather than simulation-heavy detail.

What’s Inside

  • Simple, intuitive core rules that are easy to learn and remember
  • Six classic medieval unit types, including mounted knights, infantry, archers, and cavalry
  • Fast turns and simultaneous melee for decisive, dramatic battles
  • Six ready-to-play scenarios, including ambushes, flank attacks, last stands, and river crossings
  • Sample medieval army lists, from Crusaders and Normans to Mongols and Wars of the Roses forces
  • Designed for small games of 6–8 units per side, perfect for kitchen‑table battles
  • Suitable for any miniature scale and flexible basing

All scenarios are designed for a 3' x 3' table, making the game ideal for limited space and short play sessions.

Who Is This Game For?

  • Tabletop miniature wargamers
  • Historical gamers interested in the Medieval period
  • Beginners looking for an accessible first ruleset
  • Experienced players wanting a fast, relaxed alternative to complex systems

No points systems, no army construction headaches — just balanced forces, classic scenarios, and tactical fun.
