Men of Iron Tri-Pack, 2nd Printing

Men of Iron Tri‑Pack, 2nd Printing is a historical wargame compilation published by GMT Games that brings together the first three games of the Men of Iron series plus the classic Battle of Agincourt scenario from C3i magazine. This second printing is identical to the first, with all known errata corrected.

Designed around the warfare of the medieval period, the games explore the resurgence of infantry, the clash of cavalry tactics in the Crusades, and the brutal combats of the Wars of the Roses. The pack delivers a quick‑to‑learn yet engaging system suitable for both face‑to‑face and solitaire play.
