-
- Not AFAIK.
-
- The nearest I can remember was _Mercenary_, a 70s UK-designed game that was
- taken over by Fantasy Games Unlimited for its second edition. It covered
- 1494-1560 and was big on things like your expensive armies becoming obsolete
- with new inventions.
-
- There was also a game _Holy Roman Empire_ in an early _Wargamer_, but again,
- I think it stopped before 1650.
