By the Sword!

By the Sword! is a set of Tactical level Fantasy quasi-miniatures rules includes two sheets of counters portraying several armies from the designer's private mythology. The scale is 100 feet per centimeter and 20 minutes per turn. The counters are 6, 4½ or 3 centimeters wide. A notable feature of the rules is an elaborate flow chart detailing the sequence of play. There are no scenarios, just army lists with unit costs. Players choose armies of equal value, line them up on opposite sides of the table and have at it. Terrain and weather can be added.
