## Description
Crossbows and Catapults: Chariots Battleset brings the classic mayhem of the Crossbows and Catapults line, now with war chariots soaring across the battlefield. Each player sets up their own field, placing walls, archers and, of course, the dreaded catapults. The star of the show are the chariots – pieces launched by the catapults, flying over the board and toppling enemy defenses on impact. The goal is straightforward: destroy your opponent's fortress before time runs out. Rules are easy to grasp, but they demand quick reflexes and a bit of manual skill, as you must aim and fire projectiles accurately. Games run about 30 minutes, perfect for a fast‑paced, action‑packed duel. The box includes a double‑sided board, chariot miniatures, catapult pieces, targets and damage markers. There are no complex cards or tokens, just plenty of physical dexterity and positioning strategy. It’s a great fit for two friends who love head‑to‑head competition, especially those who enjoy games mixing manual skill with a splash of medieval fantasy. If you liked the original Crossbows and Catapults, this version ups the excitement with chariots that add extra chaos and tactical options. Get ready to launch, dodge and smash everything in under half an hour!
