Description Edit | History

This game is a remake of the 1984 classic that was part of Milton Bradley's Gamemaster Series. In this game you are one of many Roman generals vying for power in Imperial Rome, employing legions, cavalry, and catapults to reach your objectives.

This version of the game has two sets of rules, one set similar to the original version (except that it has fixed the broken catapult rules) and a new set of rules based on Martin Wallace's Struggle of Empires.

1 COTE_II_Play_Aid_v2_A4size
A4 Size - This is the same Player Aide v2 that Joe Donnelly (Sunray11) made, but in PDF format because not everyone's MSword program has the same settings. I adjusted the formatting a little, but other than that I didn't change anything. Just made it into a PDF file for A4 sized paper.

1 "Spreading the map" Crockerdile's variant for CotE II
These are tokens to portray the other "worthless" provinces on the CotE II map. The reverse is in B/W, in order not to mix them up with the original scoring province tokens. Rules: Randomly draw 3 + the number of players (example: draw 6 tokens in a 3 player game)...before the game starts, then place one of the 10 / 5 rectangular pieces in that province. Those provinces will score those points, for the remainder of the game, just like any of the other original "scoring" provinces.

0 Total & Province Name for "Open" provincial Influence Markers
I have never been able to find a table of contents with a listing of such things as "how many 'open' influence markers are there?"

2 House Rules from the "Mile High Strategists"
There are actually only [6] relatively minor rules "tweaks" - the other [5] are "clarifications."
