About Hoplomachus The Lost Cities

Hoplomachus [ha-ploh-ma-kuss], or "Hoplo" for short, is a hex-based tactical board game set inside a gladiatorial arena. One to three players, each representing an ancient city/civilization thought to have been lost to the world, are now on Rome's doorstep vying for a place in the prestigious arena games. Players have a very clear objective: Eliminate the opponent's champion. Champions start the game in the arena but are inactive and defenseless. They will not fight…

Mechanics: Deck, Dice Rolling, Enclosure, Hand Management, Hexagon Grid, Solo / Solitaire Game · Designer: Adam Carlson, Josh J. Carlson
