The Great Battles of Julius Caesar: The Civil Wars, 45-43 BC


GBoH Home | Dictator | Jugurtha | Veni, Vidi, Vici

This game shows Rome against itself in the Civil Wars heralding the death of the Republic. Its mechanics are extremely similar to SPQR in everything except the command system, which has been modified to let groups of legions move at the same time.

Unlike most of the other games in the GBoH series, the armies in Caesar differ more by quality rather than type. This homogeneity makes the game a little less interesting than Alexander or SPQR.

Scenarios are included for the battles of:


Dyrrhachium (48 BC)


The Lesnikia (48 BC)


Pharsalus (48 BC)

Setup


Ruspina (46 BC)

Setup


Thapsus (46 BC)

Munda (45 BC)
