Description

Long Knives was a set of rules published by Greenfield Hobby Distributors and written by Jim Birdseye.

They were a simple but effective set of rules that depicted Indian vs Cavalry actions in the old west.

No counters came with the game as they were primarily printed with the use of miniatures in mind.
