King Arthur is a 1979 board game published by Simulations Publications, Inc.

Gameplay

King Arthur is a game where King Arthur and other nobles lead the Knights of the Round Table, other mounted knights, and archers against a coalition of rebel knights, Saxon men-at-arms, Scottish archers, Irish slingers, and Picts with poisoned arrows.[1]

Reception

Keith Gross reviewed King Arthur in The Space Gamer No. 29.[1] Gross commented that "The game can be fairly playable if the man-to-man combat matrix is replaced with a simple die roll. Overall, King Arthur is not a bad game, but it's not a great one either."[1]
