AGE OF HANNIBAL: 2nd Edition

1-225060

Game large battles of antiquity in a single evening on limited table space and with flexible basing. Focus on the critical nature of pre-battle strategy, when commanders sought the best possible ground for their armies. A terrain card system allows players to create unique battlefields, while also incorporating elements of scouting, flank marches, and possible ambushes. Includes a full campaign system for map-based play plus a chapter on conducting sieges such as Carthage or Syracuse.

Biggest difference in 2nd edition is switch from d10s to d8s for less randomness in melee outcomes. Also rebalance rebalancing the unit types; updating Rally Factors and some other unit traits for each unit type; and revising Army Morale Clock for longer battles. Also totally revises missile fire, and the way generals exert command influence.
