Weird things happen when you combine Ancients rules (War & Conquest) with WW2 skirmish activation (Nuts!).
It was certainly different!

Shouldn't there be another dice set in Greek numbers? grin

PS: No, I've never seen one either.

PPS: I think the Roman numeral dice are hekka kewl. I would use them myself if I was sure my players could reliably read them accurately.

The IV and the VI were easily confused at first, but you quickly get used to it.

Nice. Good experimenting with the command and control as well. You could do a lot with that. Giving commanders different skill levels and personalities.

To answer a question nobody asked: Phoenican numerals would be more obvious, but harder to fit on the die face.

You read my mind! : )
Thanks
