Description

At the beginning of the 18th century, warfare entered a new era. The widespread use of the flintlock musket had transformed the way armies trained and fought. This period was a golden age for the crowned heads of Europe. They commanded professional troops, gloriously outfitted in splendid uniforms, and fought each other over land, wealth and the succession to their thrones. Some even led their armies on the field of battle. Yet by the end of the century, the real power of kings was gone or greatly eroded parliaments would decide the foreign policy of nations, democracy had taken hold in the New World and the divine right of kings was everywhere being questioned.

These were the last wars fought to protect the succession rights of royalty. These wars were the Last Argument of Kings.

This supplement for the Black Powder game overviews the main conflicts and armies of this period, and includes army lists and special rules to enable you to refight these wars using the Black Powder rules, as well as scenarios for the most dramatic battles of the time. Featured conflicts include:

  • The War of the Spanish Succession - the Battle of Blenheim (1704)
  • The Great Northern War - the Battle of Holowczyn (1708)
  • The Austro-Turkish Wars - the Battle of Petrovardin (1716)
  • The War of the Austrian Succession - the Battle of Fontenoy (1745)
  • The Wars of the English Succession - the 1745 Rebellion

Frequently Asked Questions

What are miniatures used for in tabletop games?

Miniatures are small, detailed models used in tabletop games to represent characters, creatures, and scenery. They enhance the visual experience and aid in gameplay by providing a physical representation of game elements.

How do I paint my miniatures?

Painting miniatures involves several steps: priming the miniature with a base coat, applying base colors, adding details with fine brushes, and finishing with a protective sealant. Many hobbyists use acrylic paints and invest in quality brushes for the best results. You can pick some up from our Paints Section

What materials are miniatures typically made from?

Miniatures are commonly made from plastic, resin, or metal. Each material has its own advantages; plastic is lightweight and affordable, resin captures fine details well, and metal miniatures are durable and have a classic feel.

How can I start collecting miniatures?

What are some tips for assembling miniatures?

Can miniatures be used in different games?

While some miniatures are specific to certain games, many can be used across different tabletop games and RPGs, especially if they fit the theme or setting. Check the scale and style to ensure compatibility.

How should I store and transport my miniatures?
