En Garde! Swashbuckling Skirmish Wargames Rules【電子書籍】[ Craig Woodfield ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>En Garde! is a small-scale skirmish game based on the successful Ronin rules, in which small groups of warriors fight each other for honour or riches. Rather than just rolling a few dice, the rules allow players to make tactical decisions about how the models that they control will fight ? offensively, defensively, or by applying special skills and abilities. En Garde! covers the conflicts of the 16th, 17th and early 18th centuries, when black-powder weapons started to become common in battle but martial prowess still determined the outcome. Play as Border Reivers, Conquistadors, Landsknechts, Aztecs, French Musketeers, Caribbean Pirates and many more, in scenarios that evoke classic engagements of the genre. Simple campaign rules allow multiple scenarios to be played in sequence and permit warbands to develop over time. An appendix is also included to provide brief rules for supernatural creatures of the period ? monsters, demons, revenants and witches ? and new abilities and equipment to fight them, making En Garde! the perfect ruleset for gamers who want something a bit different from the norm.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Swashbuckling Scoundrels Pirates in Fact and Fiction【電子書籍】[ Arie Kaplan ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
You might be a fan of Jack Sparrow in the <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> movies. But did you know that real-life pirates were even more daring and charismatic? For example, Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard, reportedly kept a lit fuse under his hat, creating a frightening haze of smoke around his head. William Fly, convicted of piracy in 1726, had to show his executioner how to tie the noose that went around his neck at the gallows. <br /><br />Pirates are outlaws who commit crimes at sea. Throughout history they have attacked cargo-laden ships to pillage gold, silver, human slaves, and valuable foodstuffs. Twenty-first-century pirates take crews hostage and demand ransoms. Some even siphon off petroleum from tanker ships. <br /><br />The world of pirates is one of violence and economic desperation. Yet over the centuries, pirates have acquired a reputation as rugged adventurers and heroes. Novelists, playwrights, cartoonists, and screenwriters have created a wide range of tales showing pirates as noble and even lovable figures. <br /><br /><em>Swashbuckling Scoundrels</em> introduces readers to real-life piratesーmedieval Viking raiders, Caribbean buccaneers, black pirates, female pirates, and modern-day piratesーas well as famous fictional characters such as Long John Silver and Mary "Jacky" Faber of the Bloody Jack series of novels. See how historical and fictional pirates compare and why we thrill to tales of daring outlaw pirates.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

In <em>Swashbuckling Faith</em> , author and former pastor Tim Wesemann helps you find surprising doorways to God’s truth in the scenes and dialogue of the <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> movie series.

When your biblical perception starts finding treasures of truth in popular culture and everyday occurrences, you’ll set sail for the adventure of a lifetime!</p> <p><em><strong>“Captain</strong></em> <em>Jack Sparrow, if you please, sir.”</em></p> <p>Captain Jack Sparrow (that’s Johnny Depp, to you lovers of cinema) is the charming pirate in the popular <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> movies that buried Hollywood in gold. The films captured imaginations young and old, but now Tim Wesemann invites you to depart on an even greater adventureーfor real!</p> <p>Following the treasure map of God’s Word, this dangerous exploration will reveal priceless gems of not-so-buried, no-so-pirate booty!

Even scenes and dialogue from <em>Pirates of the Caribbean</em> served to help grow his faith in God.
