Tense, unpredictable, very strategic, every decision matters. Very historical: manoeuvring masses of troops is difficult, outcomes of attacks are never certain, tension is constant, timing is everything. And all of that created with a very simple set of rules, with 3 main types of units each having only 4 simple stats, and resolving most actions with a roll of a single (!) D6. A true masterpiece!

A great game that allows to fight the battles of Roman Empire. The favoured scale, 2mm allows a gods eye view of the battlefield. Whilst the command board make you really think about where you should put your energies.

Innovative and clever rules system allowing you to play at a scale not normally available on a games table. The book is well laid out and has numerous examples of play. A challenging and unpredictable game every time it seems! Detailed videos on YouTube very helpfully explains the rules.
