The reprint of this popular game produced by the Sociey of Ancients is now available on the Society website at £15.00 GBP (£12 for members). The artwork has been completely redone and the mapboard and counters twice the original size in this deluxe edition. Here is an extract from the rulebook: 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘵𝘸𝘰-𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘢𝘳𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘺 𝘰𝘧 367 𝘈.𝘋. 𝘈𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵 𝘙𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯.

So if I'm reading that extract right there are a lot of things you can't do? |

No more than is usual for a game of this kind – you can move your forces around, by sea and land, pillage towns (as the barbarian player) engage enemy troops in combat, and so on. |

Referring more to the extract just being a bunch of boxes with crosses on them. The text you quoted isn't appearing through my browser. |
