Get ready to dive into the epic conflicts of the Roman Civil Wars with the Commands & Colors: Ancients Expansion Pack #3. This expansion pack brings new life to the familiar units of the Commands & Colors: Ancients game, with the Roman legions evolving into the deadly fighting forces of legend. The game's medium and heavy infantry units now have enhanced capabilities, allowing them to move two hexes without engaging in close combat or move one hex and engage in fierce close combat, complete with the ability to throw their pilum. This new level of strategy and tactics will challenge even the most seasoned players to rethink their approach to battle. The game is designed to be easy to learn for anyone familiar with board games, with rules that are of normal complexity. If you've played Commands & Colors: Ancients before, you'll have no trouble at all learning the few special rules for these legionary infantry units, as the basic mechanics remain unchanged. The battle dice resolve combat quickly, while the Command cards provide an element of luck that creates a fog of war and presents players with both challenges and opportunities for victory. The tactics you need to execute conform remarkably well to the advantages and limitations inherent to the various Ancient units, their weapons, terrain, and history, making for a deeply immersive and engaging gaming experience. With the Commands & Colors: Ancients Expansion Pack #3, you'll also get a new mounted mapboard that can be combined with the board from Commands & Colors: Ancients Expansion Pack #2 – Rome vs the Barbarians, allowing for even larger and more epic battles. And with the new Command rules for fighting large-scale historical battles, you'll be able to team up with friends for massive, multi-player battles that will put your strategic skills to the test. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a new challenge, this expansion pack has everything you need to experience the thrill of ancient warfare.
