Havoc John of Gaunt

Players are mercenary commanders in the Hundred Years War between France and England. Nine famous battles are fought, players decide which battles their forces will enter. They recruit new troops to form sets or “Battle Hands”, which are laid out poker-style to fight battles and win victory points. One can use special cards called Dogs of War to retrieve troops from the battlefields or to draw extra resources for future battles.

John of Gaunt comes into play at the beginning of a regular turn, he cries Havoc and starts the battle with a set of three Nines.
