It is the first volume in GMT Games' Levy & Campaign +Series portraying medieval military operations. Players will raise +and equip their armies and then send them out to ravage or conquer +enemy territory and to defeat enemy forces in battle. Feudal obligations and alliances will provide a panoply of lords and vassals to +serve on campaign—but only for limited periods. Players must keep +an eye on the calendar and reward lords to keep them in the field. + +<p> +An advanced rule adds detail regarding vassal forces' length of +service. Players may use optional screens that hide the strength of +their lords for greater fog of war. Though Nevsky has no solitaire +system, the standard game is solitaire friendly. + +<p> +A foldout play aid summarizes key game functions. Reference +sheets list the lords and event/capability cards. The last few pages +of this rule book provide scenarios and key terms. A background +booklet has supplemental material such as examples of play. + +<h3> +<a href="#1.1" id="1.1">1.1 General Course of Play</a> +</h3> + +<p> +In Nevsky, two players take the roles of Russians (white) and +Teutons (black), respectively. The Russians represent the wealthy +city-state of Novgorod and its allies. The Teutons comprise German +and other landholders—including the Teutonic Order—expanding +a Baltic dominion. + +<p> +In turns covering 40 days (a traditional period of feudal obligation), +Teutonic and Russian players will levy lords and vassal forces, +gather transport, and recruit capabilities. Each lord's forces and +assets are laid out on a mat. The players then plan and command +a campaign for that 40 days with the lords who have mustered. +A cylinder on the map represents each lord, while markers on a +calendar show how much time remains in the lords' service, which +can be influenced by hunger, pay, and success or failure in their +campaigns. + +<h3> +<a href="#1.2" id="1.2">1.2 Components </a> +</h3> + +A complete set of Nevsky includes the following: + +<ul> +<li> A mounted game board (<a href="#1.3">1.3</a>) +<li> One Legate pawn (purple, <a href="#1.4">1.4</a>) +<li> Fourteen Lord cylinders (7 white, 7 black; <a href="#1.5.1">1.5.1</a>) +<li> A Lords sticker sheet (<a href="#1.5.1">1.5.1</a>, apply to cylinders) +<li> Twelve Lord mats (<a href="#1.5.2">1.5.2</a>) +<li> One Battle/Storm mat (<a href="#4.4.1">4.4.1</a>) +<li> 56 Horse wedges (28 silver [Knights], 9 steel [Sergeants], 9 brown [Light Horse], 10 buff [Asiatic Horse]; <a href="#1.6">1.6</a>) +<li> 66 Foot bars (36 steel [Men-at-Arms], 24 brown [Militia], 6 tan [Serfs]; <a href="#1.6">1.6</a>) +<li> Three sheets of markers and counters (<a href="#1.6">1.6</a>, <a href="#1.7">1.7</a>, <a href="#1.8">1.8</a>) +<li> Four decks of 21 each Russian and Teutonic Arts of War and Command cards (<a href="#1.9">1.9</a>) +<li> Two player aid foldouts (summarizing Sequence of Play, Commands, Forces, and Battles) +<li> Three reference sheets (listing Russian Lords, Teutonic Lords, and Arts of War cards) +<li> Two screens +<li> Six 6-sided dice (three white, three black) +<li> A background booklet (not needed for play) +<li> This rules booklet. +</ul> + +<h3> +<a href="#1.3" id="1.3">1.3 Game Board and Map</a> +</h3> + +<!-- +<p> +Season +<br> +Calendar +<br> +40-days box +--> + +<p> +<img class="big" src="../map75.jpg"> + +<!-- +<p> +Teutonic territory ("Estonia" and "Livonia") +<br> +Waterway +<br> +Trackway +<br> +Locale +<br> +Russian territory ("Rus") +<br> +Novgorod Veche box +--> + +<h4> +<a href="#1.3.1" id="1.3.1">1.3.1 Map</a> +</h4> + +<p> +The game board shows a map of the Baltic frontier, +circa 1240. It depicts Locales linked by Ways, a Calendar along the +top, and a Novgorod Veche (council of nobles) box in one corner. + +<p> +TERRITORY: The map is divided between Teutonic territory in +the west ("Estonia" and "Livonia", bordered in gray) and Russian +territory in the east ("Rus", bordered in red). +<i class="note"> +NOTE: In the game, Danish Estonia and Crusader Livonia are both Teutonic territory. +</i> + +<p> +LOCALES: Locales are the spaces on the map that hold Lord cylinders and game markers. Locales include Regions, Towns, Trade +Routes, Forts, Castles, Bishoprics, Cities, and Novgorod. + +<ul> + +<li> +Conquerable: Framed Locale names—all except Regions +and Towns—indicate places important enough to receive +"Conquered" victory point (VP, <a href="#5.1">5.1</a>) markers when the enemy +takes them. The borders on the frame show the VP value: one +marker if a single border; two markers if City or Bishopric; three +if Novgorod (see Strongholds on the foldout). If the original +owner retakes a Locale, remove any Conquered markers. + +<li> +Strongholds: Novgorod, Cities, Bishoprics, Castles, and Forts +can host Lords Withdrawn inside them and can be Besieged and +Stormed (<a href="#4.3.4">4.3.4</a>-.5, <a href="#4.5">4.5</a>). They show a Siege Capacity (1, 2, or 3) +that affects how many Lords they can host and other aspects +of Siege and Storm (<a href="#4.5">4.5</a>). + +</ul> + +<p> +FRIENDLY: Muster (<a href="#3.4">3.4</a>), Pay with Loot (<a href="#3.2">3.2</a>), and a few other +game actions require Friendly Locales. A Locale is either Friendly +or not Friendly to a side; it is Friendly if and only if: + +<ul> + +<li> It is either in that side's territory (Estonia or Livonia for Teutons, +Rus for Russians) or is a Conquered Stronghold in enemy +territory, AND + +<li> It is free of the other side's Lords, Unconquered Strongholds, +and Conquered markers. + +</ul> + +<p> +A Locale may be Friendly to neither side. + +<p class="note"> +NOTE: This means that Siege Locales (<a href="#4.3.5">4.3.5</a>) are never Friendly, +nor are any Regions, Towns, or Trade Routes in enemy territory— +even if occupied. + +<p class="example"> +EXAMPLES: Vod or Volkhov if empty are Friendly to the Russians +because they are in Rus. Neva with a Conquered marker is Friendly +to no one. Izborsk if Conquered by Teutons becomes Friendly to +the Teutons only, until retaken by the Russians. + +<p> +SEATS: Some Locales host certain Lords' Seats, as shown by the +Lord's Coat of Arms there (<a href="#1.5.1">1.5.1</a>). Also: + +<ul> + +<li> +Pskov: The Russian City of Pskov is a Seat for Yaroslav +(a Lord on the Teutonic side) while Conquered by the +Teutons. + +<li> +Archbishopric: Novgorod bears a cross symbol to show +that it serves as an extra Seat for all Russian Lords when the +Archbishopric Capability card is in play (<a href="#1.9.1">1.9.1</a>, <a href="#3.4.4">3.4.4</a>); this +would mean Novgorod would count as two Seats for Aleksandr, +Andrey, and Domash. + +<li> +Commanderies: Strongholds with an Order symbol serve +as extra Seats for certain Teutonic Lords if the +ordensburgen Capability is in play. + +</ul> + +<p> +SEAPORTS: Locales with an anchor affect Supply (<a href="#4.6">4.6</a>) and Sail +(<a href="#4.7.3">4.7.3</a>). + +<p> +WAYS: Two types of Ways—Waterways and Trackways—link +Locales to one another for March (<a href="#4.3">4.3</a>), Avoid Battle (<a href="#4.3.4">4.3.4</a>), Retreat +(<a href="#4.4.3">4.4.3</a>), Supply (<a href="#4.6">4.6</a>), the <var>Raiders</var> Capability (<a href="#1.9.1">1.9.1</a>), and certain +Events. Locales connected by either type of Way are adjacent. The +type of Way affects which Transport types (<a href="#1.7.4">1.7.4</a>) can use it in a +given Season (<a href="#2.2.1">2.2.1</a>). + +<ul> + +<li> +Waterway connections trace along rivers and along any shore of +a lake. +<i class="note"> +NOTE: The Baltic Sea is not a Waterway in the game, but Lords can cross it using a Sail action between Seaports (<a href="#4.7.3">4.7.3</a>). +</i> + +<li> +Trackways are overland routes along trade arteries—portages, +roads, and tracks. + +</ul> + +<p class="example"> +EXAMPLES: A single Waterway links Narwia to Uzmen, another +links Uzmen to Pskov, and another connects Novgorod, Rusa, and +Shelon River. Gdov does not block the Waterway along the opposite lakeshore from Narwia to Uzmen. Trackways and Waterways +are separate; it would take at least two moves to get from Narwia +to Ugaunia, first to Uzmen or Dorpat by Waterway, then on to +Ugaunia by Trackway. + +<p> +ON MAP: The phrases "on the map" and "on map" refer to Lords or +markers that are at Locales or, for markers, in the Veche box (<a href="#1.3.3">1.3.3</a>). +<i class="example"> +EXAMPLE: A Lord cylinder on the Calendar is NOT "on map". +</i> + +<h4> +<a href="#1.3.2" id="1.3.2">1.3.2 Calendar</a> +</h4> + +<p> +A Calendar on the board tracks time and victory +scores (<a href="#2.2">2.2</a>). Cylinders there track when Lords are Ready for +Muster; markers show when Lords (and, if using an advanced +rule, Vassals) must Disband. It shows eight Seasons in two rows, +Summer 1240 to Rasputitsa 1242, each Season divided into two +40-Days boxes. It lists reminders about Command cards (<a href="#4.1">4.1</a>), +usable Transport (<a href="#1.7.4">1.7.4</a>), the <var>Crusade</var> card (<a href="#3.4.2">3.4.2</a>), and exchanging +Carts and Sleds (<a href="#4.9.2">4.9.2</a>). + +<aside class="note"> +DESIGN NOTE: The Russian word rasputitsa means a muddy season hindering travel. Rasputitsa in the game portrays the great spring thaw (though autumn rains also brought mud).

During Call to +Arms, they may place the pawn at any Bishopric (<a href="#3.5.1">3.5.1</a>). + +<li> +The Legate may March (<a href="#4.3">4.3</a>) or Sail (<a href="#4.7.3">4.7.3</a>) with any Teutonic +Lord. + +</ul> + +<p> +ENDANGERED: If the Legate is ever with a Teutonic Lord who +Avoids Battle, Withdraws, or Retreats (<a href="#4.3.4">4.3.4</a>, <a href="#4.4.3">4.4.3</a>) or is in a Locale +with any Russian Lord(s) and no Teutonic Lord, remove the pawn +and discard the <var>William of Modena</var> card. + +<p> +EFFECTS: The Legate once on map can move himself, provide the +Teutons a Call to Arms Levy (<a href="#3.5.1">3.5.1</a>), or add to a Command Rating +(<a href="#4.2">4.2</a>) on Campaign—often returning the pawn temporarily to the +<var>William of Modena</var> Capability card. + +<h4> +<a href="#1.4.2" id="1.4.2">1.4.2 Novgorod Veche</a> +</h4> + +<p> +The Russians have a box on the map (<a href="#1.3.3">1.3.3</a>) +representing Novgorod's Veche, the civil authority governing +Novgorod. + +<p> +EFFECTS: The Veche during Call to Arms (<a href="#3.5.2">3.5.2</a>) can help Muster +Lords, give a Lord extra Levy actions, or obtain victory points by +declining Aleksandr or Andrey. + +<aside class="note"> +DESIGN NOTE: Novgorod's nobles gathered as needed into a body (veche in Russian) to appoint officials including a prince (knyaz). Veche partisans guarded their interests and their independence from such a lord through their right to decline his service. +</aside> + +<p> +WASTAGE: The Veche box can hold at most eight Conquered (victory point) markers and eight Coin; any excess is lost. + +<p> +CONQUERED: If the Teutons Conquer Novgorod (<a href="#4.5">4.5</a>), remove all Coin from the Veche box; if it was Sacked, add that Coin to Spoils (<a href="#4.5.2">4.5.2</a>). + +<p class="note"> +NOTE: The Novgorod Veche may continue its Call to Arms even while the Novgorod Locale is Conquered (<a href="#3.5">3.5</a>). + +<h3> +<a href="#1.5" id="1.5">1.5 Lords and Vassals</a> +</h3> + +<p> +Cylinders, Service markers, and 5"x5" mats track the status of Lords in Nevsky. Vassals tied to each Lord also have Service markers and add Forces. + +<h4> +<a href="#1.5.1" id="1.5.1">1.5.1 Lords</a> +</h4> + +<p> +Lords (six on each side) are the figures who carry +out military preparations and operations—Levy and Campaign. + +<p> +CYLINDERS: The game uses cylinders for each Lord to show his +location or readiness to Muster. Andrey and Hermann use either of +two cylinders each, depending on whether or not they are a Marshal +(see below). Any reference to location of a Lord means where his +cylinder is—a map Locale, on the Calendar, or out of the game. A +cylinder's sticker shows that Lord's Coat of Arms and Command +Rating (<a href="#1.5.3">1.5.3</a>, <a href="#4.2">4.2</a>). + +<div class="imglist"> + +<div> +<img src="../images/lord_russian_1.svg"> +<br> +Russian Lord +</div> + +<div> +<img src="../images/lord_teutonic_3.svg"> +<br> +Teutonic Lord +</div> + +</div> + +<aside class="note"> +SETUP NOTE: Apply stickers from the small sheet provided onto the 14 cylinders, one sticker each, white sticker on white, black on black. +</aside> + +<p> +COATS OF ARMS: Each Lord has his own shield-shaped Coat +of Arms that identifies his cylinder, mat, Vassals, card effects, and +so on. + +<p> +MARSHALS: Each side may have at most one Lord on the map +who is a Marshal and better able to lead an army of several Lords +together (<a href="#4.3.1">4.3.1</a>). Aleksandr for the Russians and Andreas for the +Teutons are Marshals whenever they are on the map.
