Description

Myrmidons is a game of strategic battle between two armies of ancient Greece's fiercest warriors. With its easy-to-learn rules, you can dive right into the action, which typically lasts around 15 minutes. The game is designed for two players, making it a great option for a quick head-to-head matchup. The goal is simple: eliminate your opponent's army, but it's not as easy as it sounds. Each of your 12 myrmidon pieces has unique abilities, varying in speed, strength, and defense, and it's up to you to discover your opponent's weaknesses and exploit them. As you navigate the 6x7 grid, you'll need to use a combination of grid movement and secret unit deployment to outmaneuver your opponent. This abstract strategy game requires a mix of bluffing and memory, as you try to remember which units your opponent has deployed and where. With its ancient theme and simple yet strategic gameplay, Myrmidons is a fun and challenging game that's been entertaining players since its release in 2010. Whether you're a fan of abstract strategy or just looking for a quick and exciting game, Myrmidons is a great choice.
