Crossbows & Catapults: Fortress War

Restoration Games is thrilled to officially bring back this classic 1983 game of tricky shots and kinetic mayhem -- now with more dynamic castles, consistent weapon fire, and a stunning look and feel. Grab a friend and fire away! This restored version features more varied pieces for more varied builds, including special structures like the jail, turret, sanctuary, and more -- juicy targets for your opponent to knock down. The simple but effective fit provides enough stability so you can build your dream castle ... but enough wiggle to come tumbling down with a well-placed shot.

More than a year of development and engineering went into the design of the bricks and the weapons to create the ultimate experience. The pieces have some heft to give your castles a real feeling of solidity. The fit is stable, so you can give them some height. The sound of the ammo discs striking the walls and them tumbling to the table has to be heard to be believed.

The classic weapons have been re-engineered from the ground up for consistency, reliability, and control. NO MORE RUBBER BANDS! The revamped weapons reward skill and practice. You’ll be pulling off trick shots in no time.

When it comes to the rules, they're so simple even a goblin can be playing in minutes. On your turn, take two actions: MOVE or FIRE. Do them in either order, or do the same one twice. Move one of your fighters! Take your best shot! Knock down all the enemy warriors and their general to WIN!
