Victory Conditions
6 Banners
The English (Pennants) gain 2 Victory Points for destroying Duc Charles' heavy cavalry unit.
The French (Standards) gain 2 Victory Points for destroying Sir William's heavy infantry unit.
Both sides gain 1 Victory Point for holding the chateau itself, so the English start the game with 1 VP.
The army which reaches 7 victory points wins the battle, even if both leaders' units are alive. It is therefore possible to have a French victory even though the chateau remains in English hands and Sir William is alive.
Similarly, it is possible to have an English victory even if the chateau falls into French hands.
The battle automatically ends when one of the two designated target units (English heavy infantry or French heavy cavalry) is destroyed. This represents the respective leader being killed in battle, ending the challenge for the title of Duke of Issey.
Briefing
The English have spread their defensive formations to guard every approach to the castle of Issey. The French need only to force their way across one of these points, take the castle and kill Sir William to ensure their victory over the usurper English knight.
For Sir William, he not only has to defend his new home, but he should also make every effort to destroy this French nobleman and prevent any further claim to his lands.
