Join us for an exciting Teach & Play session of Battalion: War of the Ancients, the latest strategy game from Paolo Mori, published by Osprey Games! My co-host Pierre Vagneur-Jones and I will be learning the game with guidance from Luke Evison, the game’s developer and friend of the show.
In Battalion: War of the Ancients, players command legendary armies from history—the disciplined Roman legions, the skilled Han crossbowmen, the elite Greco-Bactrian cavalry, or Hannibal’s formidable Carthaginian forces. Balancing unit composition, battlefield tactics, and resource management is key to victory, as players must carefully construct their forces while ensuring they remain flexible and effective in combat.
We’ll be diving into the mechanics, exploring the unique strategies of each faction, and putting our newfound knowledge to the test in a live playthrough.
