Designers commentary 3 player game 190624
A three player game where Rome is not used and the red shaded home territory is out of bounds. Matt McVeigh as Carthage, Malcolm Barnfield as Greece and me, the designer, as The Barbarian Tribes. A terrific game using the first off the press production version complete with lovely QRS sheets. More to follow as we work towards October official launch at Speil 2024!

WoFun Magna turn - a turn of Mortem et Gloriam Magna using the WoFun box set.
มุมมอง 9721 วันที่ผ่านมา
These special box sets can be used to play Pacto using a base as a base or Magna using a file as a base. Here is a turn of the Carthaginian's causing some havoc to a roman army. Rough going near filed and a wood int he distance.

Here is a video of us opening the first Mortem et Gloriam WoFun RMA set. Punic War so Rome vs. Carthage. About half the price of unpainted figures and took me 37 minutes to get from opening he box to playing! So great for getting started or for travel sets. Watch out for them on sale at the website soon.

The complete narrative of the game based on the final board position. The game designer wins a game for the firs time in a while as Barbarians agfter a bold bribery move that cost a full 15 GP and had a 4/6 chance of failure came off and Carthage failed to take Roman home regions in the final round. Happy to answer any questions here on in the associated GameFound or BGG posts.

    • @bryanb2886

      Simon made the game, so his answer is likely yes. There is a fan made tabletop simulator version you can play that has an outdated rulebook included in it if you want to test it out yourself. I get the impression that all the mechanics are simple but come together in a way that adds a lot of diverse situations and choices. And with the faction pack, you could play anywhere from solo to roughly 20 players.

    Simon, I am quite confident using the rules after reading the excellent Compendium three times (I read all rulebooks three times before even trying a game) and the Compendium is a pleasure to follow. Now I am working my way through the videos in no particular order and must say that they really reinforce what I have learned from the book. Thanks for making Mortem et Gloriam so easy to get into.

    How does this ruleset handle the Roman manipular formation in-terms of its flexibility and ability to interchange ?

    • @CCC_GAMES
      @CCC_GAMES ปีที่แล้ว

      AS a large battle game you don't want that to explicit as it would be 2 figures a maniple. For that you need a special ruleset figting much smaller battles, But the system handle it in effect in that the a legion of MRR is 5 bases - 2 hastati, 2 Prinripes and 1 triarii so the 3 ranks exist. As battle progress you stat mocing line of a few of these , then them indicual , then end up moving individual bases. the alternitve is to accept you are playing a much smaller came and set each 4 base usin to be a maniple and then you can do it excatly as it was. And it works really well at breaking up a vilaent charge or delaing with elephnats at Zama. But the reality then is you will have 1 legion on the table at normal rmy size (10 legioanry untis and 4 velites is about and army). but if you have enough figures you can do it triple ize and voila!

What am i missing? Why Elephants are allowed to block move also with cavalry?

  • @CCC_GAMES
    @CCC_GAMES 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The points systemfor Mortem et Gloriam is by far the ebst balacned ever created BTW. It was left online and we optimised it based on 5 years of play. So armies using the points system are really 50-50 affairs, then swung by PBS, play and dice rolling. Iys also a pretty celver points system that gets rids of additive only which is fundamentally flawed - so in Mortem et Gloriam superior and fully armoured is worth more that superiro + fully armoured, as it should be as one improves the other.
