Slitherine annonce la sortie sur PC et iPad de Tercio to Salvo, une première extension pour le sympathique et original Pike and Shot, jeu conçu par Richard Bodley Scott à qui l’on doit aussi par exemple précédemment la série Field of Glory. Tercio to Salvo ajoute dix scénarios historiques et de nombreuses listes d’armées supplémentaires pour le mode escarmouche, mode permettant de créer facilement de très nombreux scénarios hypothétiques. A noter qu’au passage Pike and Shot est passé en version 1.04 (voir ce changelog).
Pour l’occasion et jusqu’au 14 avril prochain vous pouvez profiter d’une offre de lancement à -50%, soit l’extension pour la modique somme de 9,99 €. Pour plus d’informations sur le jeu, voyez cette fiche chez Matrix, ou celle-ci sur Steam. Ainsi que notre article Pike and Shot : bataille de Gravelines (1558).
Communiqué
Epsom, UK – April 7, 2015.
“Monarchs ought to put to death the authors and instigators of war, as their sworn enemies and as dangers to their states.” (Elizabeth I – Queen of England and Ireland)In his holy quest to cover epic battles of an underrepresented time period, Richard Bodley Scott – game designer of the Pike & Shot series – makes a major comeback with a first expansion named Tercio to Salvo. Following in the footsteps of the base game – which blew some journalist minds with a 90 metascore on iPad – Tercio to Salvo introduces brand new conflicts and nations for a refreshing wargaming experience.
The expansion includes 10 historical scenarios that depict iconic European battles from the 16th and early 17th centuries:
French Wars of Religion – Dreux, 1562; Moncontour, 1569; Coutras, 1587; Arques, 1589; Ivry, 1590
Danish-Swedish wars – Axtorna, 1565
Ottoman-Habsburg wars – Sisak 1593
Eighty Years War – Nieuwpoort 1600
Swedish-Polish wars – Kokenhausen 1601; Kircholm 1605Most of all, the expansion brings 49 brand new army lists for skirmish mode (more than the total number in the original game), including two new nations (Russia and the Dutch Republic), allowing fans to generate an infinite number of what-if scenarios with very diversified settings and troop types. Fans of history and early modern warfare should load their musket because we are very happy to announce that Tercio to Salvo is now available on PC and iPad!
A terrific 50% launch discount is available on PC only! We are also going to offer a free Steam key to anyone who bought a copy of the PC version from the Matrix Games or Slitherine store, once the game is available on this digital platform!
