There is an "a" missing in Carthagenian,
otherwise a very nice, and challenging, game. 5 stars!

The map is wonderful, but North Africa is very confusing. The empires overlap so broadly that it is almost impossible to point to any of them. Also Pre-Helenistic Egypt isn't shown, and can't be: the situation changed over millenia (not mereley centuries, and is to complex to be represented on a map like this).
So I have tried to show some of this on the map, but it is not as clear as I would like. I think this may call for another game or two from me in the future.
In the meantime, do a site search for "Egypt": there are some games on ancient Egypt already on this site.
