Introduction

In this volume I present nine historical scenarios to be used with the Liber Militum: Tercios rules. The
scenarios, cover the gamut of the period covered by the rules, from the dawn of “modern” warfare at
Niewupoort in 1600, to the close of the era of the classical pike and shotte in the late 17th century. As an
experiment I add a scenario from the Greek War of Independence, as I am looking for rules for this period. The
fact that south of the Danube, Balkan infantry tactics based on guerilla mountaineer warfare had not changed
much since the 17th century, makes Tercios perhaps a useful set for this conflict. Conflicts cover the gamut of
opponents in this era. You have Spanish vs. Dutch, Swedes vs. Poles, Ottomans vs. Imperials, and Catholics vs.
Protestants in the Thirty Years War. You have cavalry dominated battles, and infantry scrums. Something for
everyone. Battles range from rather small actions like Honingfelde/Trzciano and Peta, to large affairs like Lutter
am Barenberge. I aimed to make all scenarios playable with moderate collections. These are all draft scenarios
and I am sharing them with you for free for playtesting. Send any remarks/ comments/ suggestions you have to
ktravlos@yahoo.com . You should not have paid anything for this scenario book. Again these are DRAFT
scenarios.
Design Philosophy
I do not believe in re-inventing the wheel. All of the scenarios barring the one of Peta, are based on existing
war-game scenarios created for other rules or systems. I mainly worked in adapting their maps, army lists and
conditions to the Liber Militum: Tercios format. The main sources are the excellent GMT, Musket & Pike
Battle Series, with the exceptional work done by the designers. Read the playbooks of this series in order to
understand warfare in the 17th century, as well as the specific scenarios. For the two Ottoman-Imperial scenarios
I adapted two scenarios created I believe by Greg Savvinos. The Nieuwpoort scenario is based on the Vae-
Victis board game, itself based on an adaption of the GMT system. As a result all of these scenarios are second
hand, in the science that unlike in mine and Chris Pringle’s Big Bloody Balkan Battles scenario book, I did not
conduct primary research. This is one more reason for making this free of charge.

General Rules Adaption


Command Rules
Unlike in normal Tercios rules, regimental commanders are not used in these scenarios (you may use them if
you wish, but it would probably just complicate the matter). Instead the Wing/Force commanders act as
regimental commanders for all units within that force/wing. Essentially all units in Wing or Force are
considered the regiment of the commander.
Some of the armies lacked Army Commanders, either because they were absent, or busy commanding a
Wing/Force of the army. In that case each Wing/Force commander can only provide command for the units in
his Wing/Force and not beyond it.
Traits and Virtues: Suggested traits and virtues for all commanders appearing in a scenario are included after
the scenarios. Feel free to use them or change them as you wish.

2
Army Lists
The organization in the Scenario Army Lists takes precedence over the organization rules in the Tercios and
Kingdoms rulebooks. How to read the Army Lists? Each Column represents one of the two sides. The first row
notes the Army Commanders and their (Rank). Subsequent Rows begin by noting a Wing/ Force designation,
then the sub-commander in that Wing/Force, then the units under their command, then any other sub-
commanders, then the units under their commands, then a new Wing/Force designation etc. The last row totals
the number of units needed for each side in the scenario.

How to read the scenario specific information?

3
Terrain Rules
Maps are all in a 6x4 square grid system. After each map is a table with the terrain information and rules. Maps
note for which scenario they are in the lower right corner.

Final reminder. These scenarios are not simulations. They are inspired by history, and try to convey something
of what happened in those battles, but they are not researched with the goal of maximizing simulation value.
Second, the interpretations of the battles are based on those of the original source material, themselves based on
interpretations of events and primary sources by those designers. If you are unhappy with them, make an effort
to make your own scenarios.
Read the source material, to get an idea of why these battles were fought and how they were fought.

Nieuwpoort 1600
“The Count Maurice liked it well”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
This battle is hailed by some as the first “modern” battle. It is true that it is one of the last clear cases of the use
of the Field Square formation by the Tercios. But it cannot be claimed that the “reformed” Dutch infantry
defeated the Tercios directly. That said it is seminal moment in modern military history and gained important
prestige for the Protestant cause. What Maurice failed to do, making an infantry that could beat the Tercios,
other Protestant captains would succeed in. Once more Dunkirk was the apple of discord, with the Dutch aiming
to take it, and the Spanish to protect it. The two armies met on the sandy beaches around Nieuwpoort, and
history was made.

Army List Notes


1. The Spanish reinforcement wing, under Velasco historically did not arrive in the battle until later. Starting from
Turn 2, roll a D6+1. On a result of 6 the Reinforcement Wing for the Spanish arrives with Ready orders in the
outer age of Map Area Row 6. If this does not happen, roll every turn, adding a cumulative +1 for each passed
turn the reinforcements did not arrive.
2. The Spanish had the sun and sand in their face, which made it hard for them to aim. Any unit firing towards the
direction of Map Area Row 1, suffers a (-) penalty to their firing.

Fleurus 1622
“Altera Restat”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
The 1618-1622 period of the Thirty Years War gave little cause for celebration for the Protestant cause in
Germany. Frederick V gave up, dismissing his two many warlords Graf von Mansfeld, and Duke Christian the
Younger of Brunswick, also known as Der Tolle (the Mad). The two though had raised and army, and now had
to find some way to pay it. The solution was to have the army hired by the States General of the United
Provinces (the Dutch Republic) which needed troops to fight the Spanish. The battle resulted when the Spanish
dispatched part of the Army of Flanders to stop them from reaching their new employers. The Spanish tercios
(not fighting in field squares any more) defeated the demoralized Protestant Army. However, they failed to
destroy it totally, and part of the army made it to Breda were it played a role in forcing Ambrogio Spinola to lift
the siege of Breda.

Army List Notes


1. The Protestant Cavalry had mutinied before the battle, and large numbers had deserted. Those that stayed to fight
were unwilling to attack. They start the battle Disordered.
2. Spanish Wagon Laeger. In order to cover their flank (historically in the C3 region) the Spanish set up their supply
wagons as an obstacle. After deployment, but before the 1st Turn, the Spanish player can place a liner obstacle
(the length should be about the length of a map square side). This counts as a Wall, and is immobile.
3. The Spanish controlled the Ferme Chassart, which anchored their other flank. The Veteran Shot Company of the
Right Wing must be deployed there.
Scenario Info
Turns: 8
First Turn: Protestants

9
Deployment: Spanish deploy anywhere in Map Row D-C on the Upper Level Terrain. Protestant Deploy anywhere in
Map Row A. Spanish Deploy first.
Victory Conditions: The Protestants win if by the end of Turn 8, they have cleared Map areas C4,D4,C5,D5 of all enemy
units thus opening the road for escape to the Netherlands. The Spanish win if by the end of Turn 8 not Protestant units are
in row D squares. If both Graf von Mansfeld and Duke Christian become casualties in the battle, the Spanish
automatically win (as two powerful leaders of the Protestant cause are taken out of the picture, and their armies would
melt away without them).

Lutter am Barenberge 1626
“Fought with the enemy and lost the battle. On the same day I went to Wolfenbüttel.”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
Christian IV King of Denmark, and Duke of Holstein did not have any better luck than previous Protestant
commanders. Denied the use of the Danish state treasury by his nobility (that had no interest in the war among
Germans) he used his own personal funds to raise a mostly mercenary army, and used his position as Duke of
Holstein, and thus a prince of the Holy Roman Empire, to mobilize the Lower Saxon circle forces. The battle
resulted from Christian’s failed attempt to attack Vienna by attempting to defeat in detail Tilly and Wallenstein.
Failing to do so, he begun a retreat to his base of operations in Germany, as his army was running out of
supplies. Tilly pursued. Feeling pressured and worried that the withdrawal would become a rout, Christian
decide to make a stand at Lutter am Barenberge. In the ensuing battle, his army was soundly defeated by Father
Tilly. While the battle did not end his intervention, it proved terminal for his ability to campaign.

Army List Notes


1. Flank March. Tilly sent the Right Wing on a flank march around the Danish position. Starting from Turn 4 roll a
D6 and add the Rank of Desfours. On a roll of 6 it enters the map from the outer edges of Map Area A1 on
“Ready” Orders for all its units. If it does not enter, roll again every turn until it enters, adding a cumulative +1
per turn passed since the first turn.
2. Christian IV arrives late. Busy sorting the traffic jams created by his retreating army, Christian arrived on the field
of battle after it started. Until his arrival the 2nd Echelon is commanded by a generic Rank 0 officer. In the first
turn roll a d6, on a roll of 1-4, Christian arrives in Turn 2. On 5-6 he arrives on Turn 3.
Scenario Info
Turns: 8
First Turn: Catholic League
12
Deployment: The Danish-Lower Saxon Army deploys in echelon. The Vanguard must deploy in Map Area B2 and B3.
The 1st Echelon can deploy in Map Row B, but no unit can be closer to the enemy than the Vanguard. Echelon 2 can
deploy in Row B or A with no unit being closer to the enemy than those of Echelon 1. Echelon 3 deploys in Row A. No
unit of Echelon 3 can be closer to the enemy than units of Echelon 2. The Catholic League units can deploy anywhere in
Row D, but Gronsfelds Detachment must the closet unit to the Danish-Lower Saxons.The Danish-Lower Saxons deploy
first.
Victory Conditions: Use scoring rules from “The Fields of Glory” Scenario. However, if at the end of the game, there are
twice as many Catholic League Units are Danish-Lower Saxon ones in map area A2 or if King Christian IV becomes a
casualty, the game is won by the Catholic League (as either result would undo the Danish intervention in the Thirty Years
War).

Honingfelde /Trzciano 1629
“I have never had a hotter bath”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
Before his fateful campaign in Germany, Swedish King Gustav II Adolf waged war against the Polish-Lithuania
Commonwealth over the key commercial city of Danzig/Gdansk. This battle was a series of encounters between
the Swedish forces trying to subjugate Danzig/Gdansk and Poles trying to lift the Swedish blockade of the city.
The battle resulted from attempts by the Poles and their Imperial allies trying to surround the Swedish positions.
What followed was a sharp cavalry battle, with the Poles getting the better of the Swedes. That said, the
political differences between the Imperials and Poles, did not permit them to use the victory to gain an
advantageous peace.

Army List Notes


1. Neither Army has an army commander, as both Gustav II and Koniecpolski were busy commanding
their wings in this confused cavalry action.
2. This action began as a small skirmish, and escalated as wings came into the field as reinforcements. The
Swedish Left Cavalry Wing and Polish Left Cavalry Wing are present on the map from the start of the
game. On Turn 2 the Polish Right Cavalry Wing arrives. On Turn 3 the Swedish Center Cavalry Wing
arrives. On Turn 4 the Polish Center Cavalry Wing, and on Turn 5 the Swedish Right Cavalry Wing
arrives. Swedish reinforcements enter from the outer edges of Map Area Row A, Polish from the outer
edges of Map Area Row D.

Scenario Info
Turns: 6
First Turn: Swedes
Deployment: Swedes deploy in Map Area Row A, Row B. Poles deploy in map are D3,D4,C3,C4. Swedes
Deploy first.
Victory Conditions: Use scoring rules from “The Fields of Glory” Scenario, and normal victory conditions. The
only change is this. If Gustav II becomes a casualty the battle is automatically won by the Polish side.

Dunes 1658
“Sir, today you will see how to lose a battle.”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
This battle took place during the Franco-Spanish War (which started with the French intervention in the Thirty
Years War in 1635-though we must note previous Franco-Spanish wars centered on Italy during the period of
the Thirty Years War). The battle came out of a Spanish attempt to lift the siege of Dunkirk by a combined
French- Commonwealth army (since 1654 the Protectorate Government of Oliver Cromwell had also gone to
war with Spain). The French were commanded by Henri De La Tour, more known by his title of Victome of
Turrene. The opposing Spanish also featured Englishmen, this time exiled Royalists as well as French exiles
from the Fronde. The battle thus was not just a battle between two states, but also between people who were
divided by domestic political conflict. After a two-hour battle on the sandy beaches and around dunes Turrene
won a victory, that Napoleon called his most brilliant. The battle has strategic importance as his victory paved
the wave for the Treaty of the Pyrenees and the end of the long period of warfare in Europe inaugurated in
1618.

Army List Notes


1. The Sloops, and Frigates from the Commonwealth Fleet kept the Spanish Cavalry from deploying in the tidal
beach when the water receded. All map areas in Map Column 1 are within the range of the fleet guns. Treat them
as a large light artillery battery.
2. Turrene attacked while a big part of the Spanish cavalry was conducting the most important task of cavalry in the
17th century, foraging. Don Juan recalled them as fast as possible. Starting from Turn 3, roll a 1d5, on a roll of 5-6
the Spanish cavalry returns. If it did not, roll every subsequent turn, adding a cumulative +1 for each turn passed
from the first roll.

Short Introduction
While a lot of the mythos of the prowess of the Swedish army of the 17th-18th century is based on the campaigns
of Gustavus II and Karl XII, it can be fairly noted that the image of the all-conquering Swede was built during
the campaigns of Karl X. The man who devastated Poland-Lithuania also almost ended Denmark as a state. The
battle resulted from Karl reneging on a peace treaty in his favor, as he decided defeating Denmark was not
enough. His attempt at a quick victory by a direct invasion of Zealand and storm of Copenhagen failed to work,
and a coalition was quickly formed against the fightaholic King (this is an actual term). After the Coalition
defeated his attempt to take Copenhagen, the Danes (with little Coalition interest) sought to expel the Swedes
from Zealand, by liberating the island of Funen as a first step. The invasion was not easy, as the Swedish
commander von Sulzbach showed the customary aggressiveness expected from the commanders of Karl. With
both armies running out of supplies aggressive commanders on both sides sought battle. The resulting battle
gave the Coalition a rare victory over the Swedes. The result was the capturing of the Swedish army (and quick
incorporation in the Coalition forces). Despite this victory the Danes were not able to win back key territories
lost in 1658.

Army List Notes
1. Coalition Command Mess. Feltmarskal Friherre Ernst Albrecht von Eberstein and Feltmarskal Hans Schack were
rivals and not willing to serve under each other. They had devised a compromise by which each would have
overall command of the army on different days. On the day of battle, Schack has overall command, but Eberstein
held his own counsel. Schack does not act as Army Commander for the units in Eberstein’s Corps, and the
reverse. If either becomes a casualty, then the other commands both corps as overall army commander.
2. Eberstein aggression. Eberstein sought to cause a battle by attacking the Swedes, even though Schack preferred
not to start battle. To represent this, no Unit of Schack may voluntarily enter into melee with any Swedish unit
before any unit of Eberstein’s Corps has engaged in melee with any Swedish unit.
Scenario Info

St. Gotthard 1664
“The Crescent torn asunder”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
The War between the Holy Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire of 1663-1664 was the result of regional
politics. The Transylvanian Prince George Rákóczy II, an Ottoman vassal, invaded the Polish-Lithuanian
Commonwealth, during the Russo-Polish War. The Ottomans, angry at their wayward vassal went to war
against him and conquered Transylvania, threatening its autonomy. Worried, Emperor Leopold I sent a small
army under Raimondo, Count of Montecúccoli at Hungary to observe the situation. Meanwhile there were
rising tensions in the Croatian military boarder. This and the presence of the Austrian army led the Grand Vizier
Fazıl Ahmed Köprülü Pasha to lunch a punitive expedition against the Hapsburgs. This triggered a major war,
as the Leopold requested help from the Reich. After successes in 1663, the Grand Vizier led his army towards
Vienna and the Raab. Montecúccoli took advantage of his superior command and control, and the terrain and
defeated the best part of the Ottoman Army in detail. The defeat led to the decision of the Ottomans to make
peace, though they gained Transylvania, and obtained their main objectives, due to Hapsburg fear of a two-front
war with Louis XIV.

Short Introduction
For the strategic context see the description for St. Gotthard 1664. The battle was a result of a secondary
Ottoamn force, made up mostly of Wallachian and Moldavian vassals, dispatched to stop the victorious
campaigns of de Souches small Hapsburg corps. De Souches lured the Ottomans into attacking and then
defeated them thanks to the superior fighting tactics of his troops.

Army List Notes


1. The Ottomans were lured into attacking the flanks of the Imperial position, not seeing the Imperial center situated
behind the hill in Map Areas C3 and C4. To reproduce this role a D6 for each ottoman wing in the first turn,
adding the rank of the wing commanders. On a roll of 5-6 the Ottoman player controls the units of the wing and
can normally act. On any other result, the all units of a wing must advance in a straight line towards the Imperials
map edge acting as under Run orders.
2. Mursu Ismael cannot command any of the units under the Prince of Moldavia, and the reverse.

Peta 1822
“My Prince, we have lost all but honor”

Source : Wikipedia

Short Introduction
A battle in 1822 may seem a bit out of the temporal domain of Liber Militum: Tercios. However the way of war
in the Balkans changed little between the 17th and 19th centuries. The Greek War of Independence in many ways
was a 17th century conflict. From the religious underpinnings of the conflict, to the character of the war as one
of blockades, ambushes, and strong-point assaults. Peta was one of the rare field battles, and this is because it
was one of the rare battles featuring regular troops. By 1822 the Greeks revolutionaries had dominated the
Peloponnese. However, the Revolution seemed to lose steam, as the warlords leading the irregular forces of the
Morea became more focused on re-organizing the territory from which Ottoman power was expelled. Seeking
to place a stake of leadership against both Demetrius Ypsilantis (impotent but nominal leader of the Revolution)
and the warlords like Kolokotronis, the politician Prince Alexandros Mavrokordatos sought to use the small
regular force of Philhellenes, Ionian Sea Islanders, and Greek regulars in order to take the initiative and make an
aggressive campaign. He decided to campaign towards Epirus with the goal of helping the warlike Souliotes
communities resist the Ottoman forces, which freed from the subjugation of Ali Pasha Tepeleni of Ioannina,
were now focused on them. Mavrokordatos took a mixed force of regulars and irregulars. But he arrived to late
to help the Souliotes, that by agreement were transferred to the Ionian Sea Islands. When trying to extricate his
force, his inability to control his nominal subordinates, led to stand at Peta (close to Arta) were his small force
held good ground, and faced a numerically, and as it proved to be, command superior Ottoman force. The defeat
of the Greeks destroyed the nascent regular army (not to be reformed until 1825) and ruined Mavrokordatos
prestige.

Army List Notes


1. Prince Mavrokordatos could not order around a kindergarten let alone an army. While he was nominally in
command, Normann-Ehrenfels was the actual commander. That said no irregular Balkan leader would willingly
obey some European disciplinarian. Normann-Ehrenfels can only command the Regular forces. He can also give
commands to any Irregular band with whose leader he is in base to base contact.
2. Greek Irregulars. Each leader can only command his own band.
3. Balkan Irregular tactics. Balkan warfare in the era was dominated by sieges conducted by blockade, ambushes,
and long range skirmishing. Most set battles saw a force defending a terrain objective and attacked by the enemy
who usually tried to overturn it by long flank marches, then any direct assault. Very rarely did the two sides close
in for the cold-steel. Both the Greeks and their Ottoman opponents fought by seeking good ground, fortifying it,
and engaging in intermittent shooting and hurling of abuse, trying to provoke an attack. All the Greek Irregulars
and all the Turkish Bashi-Bazouk and Armatoles units have the trait Protected due to the field works they build.
They lose this if they assault an enemy, but not if they are assaulted. This represents their ability to find the best
ground for defense and quickly fortify it.
4. Bakola’s “treason”. The battle was lost when the band of Gogos Bakolas either left, or deserted its position
without notifying the other forces. There is a controversy about why this happened. To represent this possibility in
the scenario, after the turn in which Bakola’s band is engaged in hand to hand combat by an Ottoman unit, make a
command test. If failed then remove Gogo Bakola and his group from the game, as they slither away to escape.
5. You can distribute the Ottoman commanders as you see fit among the Ottoman wings. Each wing must have a
command.
