Join us for a special stream as I sit down with Pierre Vagneur Jones, designer of Ermine: Men of Iron Volume VII. This exciting new entry in GMT’s Men of Iron series brings to life the War of the Breton Succession, a dynastic conflict sparked by the death of Duke John III of Brittany in 1341, set against the backdrop of the Hundred Years’ War.
We’ll explore the game’s focus on the re-emergence of infantry on the battlefield, the six major battles of the war, and how Pierre captures the shifting allegiances, skirmishes, sieges, and political intrigue of the time. With a design that pays homage to Richard Berg’s vision for the series, Ermine offers a deep dive into one of medieval history’s most fascinating conflicts.
Whether you’re a fan of historical wargaming or intrigued by this unique chapter of the Hundred Years’ War, this conversation promises insight into both the history and the design process behind this highly anticipated game.
