Pike & Shotte   Death & the Landsknecht (The Italian Wars) Supplement Book
Expand your Pike & Shotte battles with the colour, intrigue, and ferocity of the Italian Wars.
Product Info:
Death & the Landsknecht is a supplement for Warlord Games’ Pike & Shotte ruleset, focusing on the early 16th-century Italian Wars—a turbulent period where Renaissance splendour met battlefield brutality. This book gives you the history, army lists, and scenarios needed to recreate the wars between France, Spain, the Holy Roman Empire, and their Italian allies and rivals.
About the Setting:
The Italian Wars (1494–1559) were a dramatic series of conflicts fought over control of the wealthy and politically fragmented Italian peninsula. It was a time when flamboyantly dressed Landsknechts, feared Spanish tercios, elegant French gendarmes, and Italian mercenaries clashed in battles that shaped the future of European warfare. Cannons roared, pike blocks collided, and alliances shifted with the political winds.
About the Supplement:
Inside this book, you’ll find detailed historical background, force organisation charts, special rules for unique troop types, and a selection of scenarios to bring the Italian Wars to your tabletop. It’s an ideal resource for players who want to explore this colourful era using the core Pike & Shotte system.
