Here's everything you get in your copy of Table Battles.

The goal of Table Battles is to provide light but crunchy two-player gaming experiences out of land battles fought throughout human history. These aren't detailed simulations, but quick fillers that should play out in about fifteen or twenty minutes. Many of these battles are difficult to game in a more conventional hex-and-counter format because they are largely static. Indeed, the game has no maneuver element at all. Instead, the decision space is dominated by feints and counter-feints, the threat of force, its application, and its neutralization. Good play is about leverage and tempo, about forcing the other guy to deal with what you're doing, instead of advancing his own aims.
