No Quarter Siege No Quarter Siege is an optional expansion to the No Quarter rules to allow assaults on castles and heavily fortified positions. One player will take the role of castle defender, whilst the second player will take the role of attacker. The attacking player will normaly have a larger force than the attacker to balance the fortified position of the defender. Siege battles allow for much larger models to be used. Apart from the actual castle itself, the attacker gets to field some impressive siege weapons; giant siege towers and battering rams are used to attack the castle walls and the castle gate.

If you have seen the Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King (and don't tell me that you have not) then you will know just what I mean. The new rules cover the following new aspects of No Quarter: Castle Components Siege Towers Battering Rams Formations and Movement Using Ladders And Grapples Ranged Combat Push Attacks There are some weapons introduced, such as the Doomsday Mine and the massive Trebuchet and some new abilities and traits also enhance attackers and defenders. The Castle There are many castles available, some resin, some plastic and others like the Siege Works range from World Works Games is card. Given the time and the space, it is easy enough to make a castle from scratch. Having said that, we used an old Games Workshop polystyrene castle picked up off eBay. We particularly wanted a polystyrene castle to allow some destroyed sections to be easily created from a wall and tower section.
