American Civil War Warlord Black Powder Epic Battles Starter Set

The tension between the Northern and Southern States erupted into outright hostility with the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860. The Confederacy, fighting to maintain its independence, clashed with Northern troops seeking to preserve the union. Four years of intense warfare gripped the nation, marking a conflict unprecedented in Americas history.

The American Civil War, with over 237 named battles and countless skirmishes, remains one of the most studied military conflicts. The warfare, though still largely linear in tactics, had evolved with destructive technology, leading to atrocious casualty rates. Some historians even see it as a preview of the devastation witnessed in World War I over half a century later.

The Epic Battles system offers gamers the opportunity to relive these historic conflicts on a grand scale. Based on the renowned Black Powder rules system, this box set includes 2400 plastic figures representing the two armies.
