Description:

Ancient nations create cities and build temples, sail the seas, do battle, and make scientific headway. Their legions and galleys defend their homeland and conquer new territories. Two-sided game board features different theaters of operation. Players choose their nation from among the Greeks, Romans, Germanic Tribes, Phoenicians, Cathaginians, Persians, Arabs, Egyptians, and Babylonians.

Each nation tries to win ancient kings, scholars, generals, navigators, and citizens. The first to gain a given number of ancient personages wins the game. This game contains a big 2-sided game board, each side providing different strategic challenges. Winning depends not on the luck of dice or cards, but on strategic planning and smart diplomacy.

Antike rating: 5/5 stars My Favorite

Antike is my favorite board game. I really like the fact there is no dice or relying on luck to win. The only factor this game leaves to chance happens at the beginning when you randomly draw for your starting civilization. The rest of it depends on how your opponents play, after about 20 games I have yet to see two of them play out the same way.

Antike rating: 4/5 stars Good Game!

I just played this game with 4 of my friends and my girlfriend. It was very simple to explain to them the rules and get the game in motion because my girl and 2 of the others where brand new to the game. It took a little while to build up and start war but once it got going it became very fun I wish it hadn't ended. We're playing again tonight and this time we're gonna play it like risk and the first one to conquer the world wins! Can't wait.

Antike rating: 5/5 stars Love It!

Not a game for the un-initiated gamer, this game combines the resource building strategies of Settlers, the technology choices of Civilisation, razor-edged gut of Risk, and much more!
