The Barons’ War 2nd Edition boxed set is the definitive entry point for 28mm medieval tactical skirmish gaming. This all-in-one collection features 54 hard plastic miniatures, a full Second Edition Rulebook, and exclusive hard plastic scenery, offering everything needed to lead a medieval retinue to glory.
Lead Your Retinue to Glory on the Medieval Battlefield!
The medieval world was a landscape of shifting alliances, dueling lords, and brutal skirmishes where warriors fought for honor and survival. The Barons’ War 2nd Edition brings these dynamic, narrative-driven battles to your tabletop. Inspired by the First Barons' War, this versatile system allows you to recreate historical engagements or craft your own legends, from daring castle raids to open-field clashes for the crown.
For the dedicated hobbyist, this starter set provides unparalleled value. Featuring original sculpts by Paul Hicks and finalized by Rob Macfarlane, these figures offer the modularity [Wargames Atlantic] is famous for. The set includes enough highly detailed miniatures to build two 500-point starter retinues or a single 1000-point army, making it the perfect gateway for two players to enter the Age of Chivalry.
Hobbyist Versatility & Complete Game Essentials
Beyond the army-building potential, this boxed set is packed with premium game components. The inclusion of 8 hard plastic barricades (which can also be configured as a sprawling medieval market) adds immediate tactical depth to your terrain collection. With custom Morale dice, dual-colored ten-sided dice, and a comprehensive rulebook by Andy Hobday, you can move from the sprue to the battlefield with ease.
The Barons’ War 2nd Edition Boxed Set includes:
-
Full Second Edition Rulebook and Getting Started booklet.
-
54 Multipart Plastic Miniatures: 12 Foot Knights, 18 Foot Serjeants, and 24 Peasant Levy.
-
56 25mm Round Bases.
-
Hard Plastic Scenery: Pieces to build up to 8 barricades or a market scene.
-
Game Accessories: Double-sided tokens, 14 ten-sided dice, 10 Morale dice, and one d6.
Tip: When assembling your Peasant Levy, mix and match arms and heads with the Foot Serjeant frames. This "kit-bashing" creates a more realistic, rag-tag appearance for your lower-tier troops, making the disciplined, uniform look of your Foot Knights stand out even more.
