Commands and Colors Ancients

Officially: Commands & Colors Ancients. A boardgame often played as a miniatures game. The battlefield is represented with 2.25" hexes (9 rows of 13 hexes). Played with cards, special dice and wooden blocks to represent forces, it plays easily with 6mm, 10mm, 15mm or 28mm gaming figures by adjusting the hex size to as large as 6" flat-to-flat.
