Just a quick question, how do you handle combat with roman armies and forts? We always played by rolling one die at a time, discarding everything except 6's...

How about working out a "core area" for each nation? Say the point scoring areas on the first turn they appear (and if it is 'all english areas' there is no...

... It's a good idea, similar (but simpler than) a list of bad-alliances for each nation. However don't the last 3 combo.s make a 3 player game impossible?...

OK, this may seem like a silly question, but just how do you pronounce the region "Hwicce"? I did some looking on Google and found a site that seemed to...
