📖 About This Game
What: A free introduction to the Reaction System used by Two Hour Wargames.
Scale: Man-to-man sword and shield combat. 1 figure equals 1 man.
Your Role: You lead a small group of 1 to 5 figures in a series of man-to-man scenarios.
Playability: Designed for solo, same side and head to head play.
Sword Play 2015 allows you to learn the Reaction System used by THW without spending a dime.
While our counterpart Chain Reaction is about modern firearms, Swordplay is about hand-to-hand combat with sword and shield .
It's an entry level, free look, into THW games, that works well for any period, including Fantasy, when it was all about swords, bows, and shield.
Swordplay gives you a chance to see if you like the Reaction System, before trying one of our period specific games. Think of SP 3.1 as a preview. The nice thing is it contains the same mechanics, but less detailed and period specific, of our other games.
