He is quite taken with Commands & Colors Ancients so that is what we played completing 3 scenarios.
He took Carthos this time around in each scenario so I was Romans who came out winners in 2 out of the 3.
An easy game to teach and play although I had forgotten in earlier games that Leaders effect adjacent hexes in combat.
I regret not expanding C&C collection beyond base game as so many expansions are now out of print or massively expensive here in UK, although I have not played every scenario in base game yet.
Was great to get some play in with Steven and hopefully more visits next year.
Quality wargaming time! Not sure where I read it, but I think some reprints are being planned and the reprints will be in pairs to reduce redundancy of repeat units. Thanks for a year of sharing your table. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteCertainly was. Will keep a look out for re-prints.
DeleteI have the original only myself, but have never actually played it!
ReplyDeleteI think the rules and scenarios for most of the C&C series can be downloaded on line; I know it is true for the Napoleonic version.
Bit like me and To The Strongest :-)
DeleteRather the case, LOL!
Deleteyou can get all the versions online. https://www.commandsandcolors.net/
ReplyDeleteNice resource but I prefer physical games (although I do use Vassal)
DeleteThe best is the first expansion, Greece and the Eastern Kingdoms. Recently reprinted in last few years.
