Overview
The English Civil War is a board wargame that was published by Philmar in 1978.
Description
The English Civil War is a strategic level wargame simulating the English Civil War, designed by Roger Sandell and Hartley Patterson.
The game differs from most wargames of the time in its distribution of units. In this game, each player must allocate troops to the left wing, centre and right wing. The combat between the cavalry troops in the wings (left versus right, right versus left) are resolved first. If any cavalry units are left, they can then be sent to help in the centre.
The game components are:
49 cm by 61 cm mounted map
thin coverstock counters for military units
20-page rulebook (The last two pages are removed and used as tactical combat displays)
