Description

Syracuse (415/413 BC) covers the land and naval battles as well as the siege of Syracuse during the Peloponnesian War.

It is a two players game: Athens and allies vs. Syracuse and allies.
One game turn covers three months.

The game includes:
- 16 pages rules booklet (14,4x21 cm)
- 29,7x41 cm map (27 land zones and 12 sea zones)
- counter sheet of 108 die-cut counters (68 leaders and combat units, 22 stratagems counters and 18 markers)

A historical scenario and a "What if?" scenario with Alcibiades as main Athenian leader, are included.

Players will be able to build forts and walls, to launch naval operations and to lead land battles.

Note: The rules are based on Sphacteria ones, which appeared in Vae Victis magazine issue #95. These rules include siege activities, construction of fortifications and several additional developments.
