Oh I'd be interested. I've not gotten to try out C&C Ancients but have always heard it's the best of the system. I'll look up the rulebook online and get familiarized.

Something without black powder?  Sounds interesting.

Here at ACD, we all pee the same color.

Are there catapults?  Do their wheels squeak when move like artillery?

Everything with wheels squeaks. Sometimes things without wheels squeak.


We are retro-fitting the catapults with black powder, as well. The Carthaginians will be furnished with arquebuses. Which will sqeak.


Sqeaky, sqeaky...





I actually don't really like games.

Charge them to find out.

Being able to Google shit better than your clients is a legit career skill.

Oh, and heavens, the flashpan cover at a minimum would squeak...much more so the lever itself!

The "I am Cyrano" card is also missing.  It has the player remove 1/3 of their leaders at the start of the game.
