GMT Games: Banish All Their Fears

Dive into the thrilling world of historical battles with GMT Games' 'Banish All Their Fears', the first in the Bayonet & Musket Battles series, a follow - up to the Musket & Pike series. This game covers the epic battles of Neerwinden in 1693 and Blenheim in 1704. The game scale offers an immersive experience: 1 hex represents 200 - 220 yards or 190 - 210 meters, and 1 turn lasts 20 minutes. Infantry units consist of battalions of 500 - 600 men, while cavalry units are made up of 2 to 3 squadrons of 250 - 350 men. Artillery units are batteries of 8 - 10 guns. With a moderate complexity level and medium solitaire compatibility (no hidden or reaction movement), players can enjoy strategic gameplay. The sequence is based on brigade orders like Charge, March, and Dress Ranks. Inside the box, you'll find a comprehensive rulebook, a playbook, a two - sided 34x22 map, 5 two - sided ¾ inch counter sheets, a two - sided Command Display, 4 Player Aid Cards, a single - sided Time Card, and 2 ten - sided dice.

How to Use: First, read through the rulebook carefully to understand the game's rules and mechanics. Then, set up the game using the two - sided 34x22 map, counter sheets, and Command Display. Use the Player Aid Cards and Time Card as references during the game. Roll the two 10 - sided dice to determine various game actions. Remember to follow the brigade orders for a proper sequence of play. Whether you're playing alone or with others, make strategic decisions based on the unit strengths and the battle scenarios. Attention: Keep the small components like the counter sheets and dice away from small children to avoid choking hazards. When handling the map and cards, be gentle to prevent damage. Maintenance: Store the game in a dry and cool place to prevent warping of the map and cards. If the components get dirty, you can use a soft, dry cloth to clean them. Avoid using any liquids or abrasive materials that could damage the game pieces.
