Description: Award winning game magazine, C3i #31, by RBM Studio, features the game, The Battle of Wakefield, on its cover. This complete C3i is a much sought after issue with many inserts, counters, and the game, Battle of Wakefield, which is part of the popular Men of Iron series. The Battle of Wakefield is a stand-alone game from the third volume of the Men of Iron series, Blood & Roses. Set in the War of the Roses, it depicts the pivotal battle on 30 December, 1460, between the House of York and the House of Lancaster. It comes with a 22" x 17" map, 116 counters, rules booklet, and play aids. All is complete and in like new condition. It was at Wakefield that Richard, Duke of York, met his doom. Richard was head of the Yorkist faction, and had begun the rebellion against King Henry VI that is now known as the War of the Roses. It isn't clear why he rode out that day against an army with numerical superiority, but the end result was calamity for the Yorkist contingent. About half the army perished, including Richard and the Earl of Salisbury (father of Warwick the kingmaker). Can you break the Lancastrian army before its reinforcements arrive or will you share Richard's fate? Featuring renowned designer Ralph Shelton's standalone game "The Battle of Wakefield," C3i #31 puts you on the field at the start of the War of the Roses. Can you end the war before it starts, or will England be doomed to a generation of bloodshed? This 25th Anniversary Edition of C3i is also packed full of articles on numerous other hobby games, including a preview of some upcoming COIN Series installments, a new scenario for Normandy '44 presented by Trevor Bender, and errata for acclaimed game "South Pacific." The designer of that game, Mark Herman, also delivers a new installment of Clio's Corner, discussing how Alexander Hamilton inspired the design of Herman's game "Pericles." Steve Carey takes us back to the classic "Clash of Giants Civil War" and Captain Garrett Gatzemeyer gives us some insight into how West Point cadets use board games for fun and training. This issue is packed with inserts for many games, including this issue's "Battle of Wakefield," "Empire of the Sun," "Plan Orange," "Blood & Roses," "Corrupedium GBoH," "Liberty or Death," "Wing Leader," "Normandy '44," "Distant Lands," "France '40," and "Ukraine '43."
