Description
Combat in the Lists is a small hand to hand combat game/simulator that incorporates card management and strategy.
During the medieval period skilled knights were famous throughout the land and the lords of the realm would hold grand tournaments to demonstrate the skills of each knights in his service. These tournaments brought together knights from across the realm to fight for glory and honor. “Combat in the lists” is a game of hand-to-hand combat that pits knight against knight in pitch battle. These battles were never fought to the death and the weapons used were usually dull or blunted to render an opponent unconscious but sometimes deaths did occur. It wasn’t uncommon for a battle in the list to last for hours and end only when the last knight was left standing. It was this lone knight that was honored as the tournament champion.
The goal of the tournament was to be the last knight standing inside the list!
