The French community is quite active, and a lot of new
material has been published, for which I didn't find the
time (or courage) to provide an English translation. Please
find below a list of Cry Havoc stuff which is available only
in French at this time. I will undertake the translation
should I get a strong feedback from you to do so. |

The Extensions |
The Fortified
Bridge |
|
This new extension was designed by Viktor of Drakar. It
displays a bridge to be used between 2 VIKINGS maps, with a
toll gate and drawbridge. 4 scenarios have been written so
far. |
|
The Canary
Islands (Les Isles Fortunées) |
|
This extension was created by Vox Populi & Reanonyme (2
brothers actually). It depicts the invasion of the Canary
Islands (West of Portugal) by a group of French knights in
the late 14th century. This is the opportunity to fight
natives armed with simple axes and javelins. Great counter
mods by the authors, and a new map of a coastal wooden fort. |
|
Khûzdûl |
|
Jo@rloc has created an army of Dwarves based on graphics
from Pierre Milko. The set of rules
to play them is quite impressive. |
|
Rus! |
|
Vox Populi & Reanonyme have completed an extension about
Russian & Steppic hords in the 10th/12th centuries, based on
VIKINGS & CROISADES modified characters. The result is
fairly enthusiastic! |
|
Hallali |
|
Do you feel like hunting boars, deers or even bison? Viktor
Drakkar has generated several counters of wild animals for
you to chase them. 3 scenarios exist so far. |
|
Scenario Betatest
Program |
|
Most scenarios that were created for the extensions had
never been playtested. Using Vassal for the most part,
players have been registered to test scenarios, giving their
feedback about balance, playability and fun. Based on these
inputs, scenarios are being modified to be more enjoyable. |

The Magna
Carta |
|
I have started the daunting task of compiling all rules
published so far to rationalize them and provide players
with a consistent set of rules, hence the name of the
project! This work doesn't have the depth of Bob Gingell's
masterpiece and is not supposed to supersede it. It is just
a selection of rules, with a few improvements, especially
for the infiltration rules, which have generated 2 months of
severe discussion on the Yahoo forum between a few experts!
All rules come with numerous example and color
illustrations. |
|
Other maps |
|
The following maps come with a set of rules and/or scenarios
that have not been translated so far: The Bastide & the
(revised) Albigensian Crusade. |
