Nova Aetas Renaissance: Under Siege (2023)

Overview

May 5, 1527, a day that will be remembered forever, for one of the bloodiest and most famous sieges in history, the Sack of Rome.

The Imperial army led by General Frundsberg and composed of the Landsknecht, ruthless mercenaries from Germany and Spain, are about to enter Rome to sack it and capture the Pope... Only you can prevent it!

Set years after the main campaign of Nova Aetas: Renaissance, in Under Siege you will find your favorite heroes to be more mature and engaged in an impossible mission! This new Campaign made up of 10 new frenetic Missions will see you engaged in the desperate task of resisting the Imperial assault and saving the Pope, before it's too late ... but you will have to be shrewd and brave, the enemy army is not composed only of humans!

Each Mission will be a race against time, always with different mechanics to manage the massive clashes between the defenders of Rome (including the miniatures of the core box faction of Rome) and the ruthless assailants!

In Under Siege, you will find 4 new Tiles and new scenic elements to represent Renaissance Rome, such as the spectacular Aqueduct/the door to the City/Passetto (an elevated secret passage)!

In Under Siege, you'll also find a new Hero, Brynhildr the Lancer, a warrior of German origin who came to Rome to help the Pope against his former compatriots.

Finally, Under Siege introduces the Allies to NAR! Allies can be added to your company and will help you with Missions. Giovanni dalle Bande Nere, the brave captain in defense of the Eternal City, will be able to join your group as a model in its own right and you can control him as if he were an additional hero, but with more limited rules.

Plus, you'll have fantastic new miniatures, new special items, and new rules to represent the German tide sweeping through the city's neighborhoods!

Get ready, the siege is about to begin!
