Description

"Chocim. Potęga Husarii" (Chocim. The might of the Hussars) is a wargame for 2 players, focusing on the epic battle of Chocim, fought in 1621 between the forces of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and of the Ottoman Empire. The struggle lasting several weeks and consisting both of pitched battles, as well as of skirmishes and siege actions ended in a stalemate and to a truce. The besieged Polish-Lithuanian forces prevailed and managed to stop a further Ottoman expansion North. One of the players will take control of the more numerous Ottoman forces and his objective will be to break through the Polish fortifications and take control of the main Polish encampment. The player controlling the Commonwealth forces will be defending his fortress at all costs at the same time trying to bring down enemy morale to a level at which it will refuse to keep on fighting. If neither side achieves their objective on the battlefield before the end of the 5th turn the game is decided upon a diplomatic clash when both players will use their diplomacy assets acquired throughout the game.
