About

This is the second game in the TPS line of the Pocket Battle Games series from LPS, Inc. It covers the 1522 attempt by the Ottoman empire to take the city from the Knights Hospitaler. It is printed on a single postcard-sized piece of cardstock with game map on front and rules on the back. Counters need to be cut from around the edge of the card. Die-cut counters are available from ATO with any purchase at no additional charge. The Ottoman side attempts to reduce the Hospitaler resistance by bombardment, mining and assault, while the Hospitaler side tries to reduce the Ottoman artillary and resistance by bombardment, counter-mining and sallies. These actions are taken by units activated by random card draws and results are resolved with a D6 roll.
