Looks great, and I love the concept of a table-top game I can slap down in minutes, while still capturing the broad aesthetic of a miniatures battlefield.
My only concern is a hope for a good localization. Some of the English in the KS video, and a couple of the images, as best as I could tell, was a touch spotty.

Same here, almost!
I concentrated on Alexander the Great and the whole Hellenistic Age, but still, this looks awesome!

I see this as an excellent gateway game to TTG.

I just backed this. Would love to see an Alexandrian army, successors and Phyrrus to bridge to Rome.

The black rage is within us all. Lies offer no shield against the inevitable. You speak of donning the black of duty for the red of brotherhood; but it is the black of rage you shall wear when the darkness comes for you. |

This looks like a very good game, but shouldn't there be some African troops on the Carthage side? I'm pretty sure they had Namibian spearmen or something

Numidian Cav were the heart of Hannibal flanking force... I just assumed they're in there... aren't they?
EDIT: found them, in the game as a mercenary force (which makes sense because early 2nd Punic war they were a Punic ally and end of war a Roman one).

Excellent KS. Can't wait for this game. Will definitely use it with my younger children and my students as a gateway to TTG
