Sword of Rome

The Sword of Rome uses event cards and point-to-point maneuver to enable up to five players to recreate the vicious struggles among the peoples of Italy and Sicily in 4th and 3rd Centuries BC.

Including rules and events for city loyalty, Roman colonies, tribal raids, Gallic indiscipline, Greek siege craft, Indian war elephants, Roman and Macedonian-style infantry tactics, the mountain fastness of Samnium, and much, much more. The game covers over 100 years of classical history in just 9 hands of cards. Who will dominate the western Mediterranean–and with it earn the right to vie for control of the known world?

This module borrows some high-resolution scans but was mainly recreated by hand as the scans of the components were not up to any quality standard. Combat Units and Loyalty markers are double-sided, the game is setup for the 4-Player game but all the components necessary for the Carthage Expansion is included as well as the relevant Gallic Events sheet for a 3-Player game.
