Description

As it puts it in the introduction to the rules, Roman Circus Chariot Race is "a light-hearted attempt to recreate some of the incidents and excitement of these races in the form of a game".

The game provides a thorough but accessible and easy to follow rules set that includes charts for resolving Whip Attacks, Bridle Snatching, Ramming, Heading Off, Collisions, Jumping Wrecks, Charioteers thrown from their chariot, loss of wheels and Chariot Wrecks.

The boxed game includes the rules, two pages of reference charts, a small hex board representing a simple racing circuit, and cardboard cut-out counters for chariots and charioteers. Players must supply their own standard 6-sided dice and 20-sided decimal dice. Miniatures are optional.
