Great Battles of History ventures back into the mists of time, into an area of military history that has seen little coverage by the hobby: The Bronze Age, or the Age of the Chariot. From approximately 1700 BCE to 1200, the abrupt end of The Bronze Age, the chariot reigning supreme on the battlefield. It was the first "modern" weapon system, and chariots controlled most of warfare until actual cavalry appeared in the middle of The Iron Age.
But how did chariots work as a tactical weapon system? There is no complete agreement on what they did, or how they were used, but Chariots of Fire shows you GMT's view of the many applications -- and many types of chariotry -- there were, providing GBoH-ers with the complete and definitive chariot rules... from combat to mobility, from the first battle wagons of the Sumerians to the two-man, fast-moving light chariots of the Egyptians, often complete with specialized Runner Infantry, to the heavy 3-man Hittite wheels.
