Description
The Conquerors: The Romans and The Macedonians is a strategic and tactical simulation of the eastward expansion of the Roman Republic after the Second Punic War, which ended in 200 B.C. Two specific periods are covered: the Second Macedonian War (against Philip V), in which Rome laid its claim for control of Greece (albeit in somewhat defensive posture), and the Syrian War (against Antiochus, the Selecuid king), wherein Rome made its first incursions into the Asian continent. The latter Scenario uses both maps in The Conquerors game (that of The Romans along with that of The Macedonians). The Macedonians covers the conquests of Alexander the Great.
