Between 58 BC and 50 BC, the military might of the Roman Republic waged a brutal war on the Gallic Celt tribes living in the lands of Gaul. What the Gaul warriors lacked in the drilled discipline of their Roman foes they more than matched them with in ferocity and individual fighting prowess. The Gallic Wars, a deadly clash of cultures and military doctrine, would shape Western Europe for centuries to come. Gaius Julius Caesar's aggressive campaign would ultimately end with Gaul being subsumed into the Roman Republic, and ensure his name would become legendary. Hail Caesar is a game of tabletop massed battles set in the Ancients era. Pit your wits and tactics against your friends as your armies clash in combat on the tabletop. Can you wield the legions of Rome with the same skill and success as Caesar? Or would you prefer to lead Gallic tribes such as the Nervii, Helvetii and Venetii against the invaders as the renowned chieftain Vercingetorix did? The Caesar's Gallic Wars starter set gives you two starter forces: the barbaric Gauls and the legions of the late Roman Republic – a fantastic start to your campaign to conquer all comers and write your name in the annals of history! Starter set contains: Softback A5 Hail Caesar Gamer's Edition rulebook. Gallic Wars introductory guide. 80 hard plastic Gallic Celtic Infantry. 48 hard plastic Caesarian Roman Infantry. Celtic and Roman waterslide shield decals. 12 6-sided dice. Reference sheet and casualty counters.
From the Early Bronze Age, Spartans and Greeks, the Roman Empire and their many foes, through to Medieval Knights, Hail Caesar is the game of ancient battles.
Based on the award-winning Black Powder rules system, focusing on hand-to-hand combat, reenact pivotal battles in history within this tabletop combat game using dice, troops, and rules constructed by Warlord Games against one or more opponents.
Each unit is led by a single general. You can move your entire brigade altogether or give individual units their own orders. On each turn, verbal commands are declared and agreed upon by both players before the play and moved based on those verbal commands and the roll of the dice.
Built to be played on large tabletops, such as a pool table and multiplayer with as many people as you want, but can be played on space as small as 6' x 4'. A standard move is 12 ins for infantry, 18 in for Cavalry. Each player will need to have a measuring tape/ruler and dice handy as they are not included. Can begin with simplified rules and introduce more scenarios as your skill progresses.
Build, paint and play! The construction and painting of the models and watching them come to life are just as much fun as the game itself!
