About the game
Pyrrhus is the general of the expression “Pyrrhic Victory” Pyrrhus took part in the wars between the Diadochi, the heirs to the empire of Alexander the Great, of whom he was a relative. He then spent the rest of his life fighting in Macedonia, Greece, Italy, Sicily against the Romans, Carthaginians and Spartans. He will finally die in battle and, through his exploits, he will be the model of Hannibal. This book combines historical study of the epic of Pyrrhus and game. It brings together 20 battle scenarios (encounters, sieges, ambushes, etc.) led by Pyrrhus and his sons, playable individually or in the form of a campaign. It allows you to reconstruct these clashes with different rules (Saga, DBA, ADG, DBM, Hail Caesar...). —description from the designer
