Simon de Montfort (game)

Simon de Montfort is a 1979 wargame designed by Martin Edwardes and published by World Wide Wargames, also known as 3W. The game covers a medieval civil war and is played on a colorful and informative map, with players commanding either the Rebel or the Royalist side. Each side recruits troops in towns and castles shown on the map, and the game begins with both sides setting up their forces and spending several turns representing months recruiting, simulating the opening of the civil war. The combat system includes multiple rounds of fighting, morale checks, and retreat mechanics as the two armies maneuver and clash across the map.
