Roman Civil War (1993)

Roman Civil War is included as an insert game in issue 157 of the Strategy & Tactics magazine. Errata was published in S&T #159.

Roman Civil War is a two player wargame covering the battles between Pompey and Julius Caesar. The game is strategic in scale, with units representing legions, fleets and allied units on both sides. The mapsheet, overlaid with a hexagonal grid, covers the important areas of the Roman empire, including Italy, Greece, Asia and Egypt. Off-board areas represent surrounding areas such as Spain, Gaul and Syria.

The game uses the same game system developed in Trajan (S&T #145), and later used by Caesar in Gallia (S&T #165) and Germania (S&T #175). The maps of these games can also be combined to replace the function of off-board boxes.

Game components consist of a mapsheet, counters, rules and game charts.
