Preferred Ancient Wars? - Bandito - 08-01-2009 I was definitely going to get one of these games at some point, but I don't know which one! Is it all a matter of taste and what era one would prefer to play in? Which is the newest? Punic Wars Gallic Wars Alexandrian Wars Perhaps it might also help me if I had an idea of the kind of terrain I should be expecting in any of these games, and maybe even the types of units available. Gameplay videos would be nice also, if they're out there. Are they based on Decision Games's "Battles of the Ancient World" set? RE: Preferred Ancient Wars? - RADO - 08-15-2009 My recommendation is Punic Wars first, then Alexander. Punic Wars seems to be the most popular as it has been out quite a while. I'm not too impressed with Gallic Wars. Alexander is the best yet, IMO. Just being so new it's hard to find opponents. Get one and let's play a PBEM game!
