Lion’s Heart, Saracens’ Steel
is a part of the
Battles of the Middle Ages Series,
an easy to learn wargame system that tries
to recreate most of the principal battles
fought from Roman Times to the dawning of
Renaissance. These games are designed to be
fast and furious, easy to learn and to play,
but still true to the historical events
portrayed.
The battle of Arsuf is one of the most
peculiar battles of the Crusades.
It was part of the campaign of the Third
Crusade, and an important tactical victory
for King Richard I, “the Lionheart”, against
one of the most famous Saracen leaders of
all time, Saladin (who had crushed the
Crusaders four years earlier at the battle
of Hattin).
However, the battle was insignificant in the
overall strategic situation, as the
Crusaders were unable to take their ultimate
goal, the city of Jerusalem.
