Knights and Knaves (1994)

Knights and Knaves
A skirmish level game of combat in the Middle Ages. When someone is trying to cave in your head with a poleaxe, you don’t have time to write an order so “Bob” can load his crossbow. Skirmishes are fast-paced, hair-raising affairs — arrows fly, weapons clash, people get wounded or die. It’s all over in a matter of minutes. Why then do most skirmish rules take hours to play? The intent of Knights and Knaves is to provide a game that is quick (which is only appropriate for actions that take a few seconds in real life), that focuses more on people than fine differences in armor or weapons.
