Scenario Briefing: Historical - After Charles de Blois had captured Quimper in May 1344, the rival Breton Montfortist party was in serious difficulties and needed English support in order to continue the Breton war of succession. In June 1345, a small raiding force under the English captain Sir Thomas Dagworth encountered superior Blois forces at Cadoret. However, Welsh archery would prove more than a match against 2:1 odds.

The scenario scale is 40m per hex and 10 minutes per turn.

Recommended Rules: [Default]

Note: Side A = pro-French de Blois Bretons, Side B = "English" but, in fact, mostly Welsh archers and Gascon gendarmes in English service.

Suitable for playing either side against the A/I, but perhaps best for Head-To-Head play.
