Great Battles of Alexander Deluxe 2nd Edition

Great Battles of Alexander Deluxe 2nd Edition is a major entry in GMT’s Great Battles of History series, covering the campaigns of Alexander the Great and the Macedonian war machine at its peak.

This expanded deluxe edition includes ten battles, from Philip II’s victory at Chaeronea to Alexander’s famous clashes at Granicus, Issus, Gaugamela, and Hydaspes. The game focuses on ancient battlefield command, with phalanxes, cavalry charges, skirmishers, terrain, morale, and leadership all playing a major role.

It is a detailed tactical wargame for players who enjoy ancient warfare and want more than a broad historical overview. Each battle presents a different tactical problem, whether that means forcing a river crossing, breaking a powerful Persian army, assaulting difficult terrain, or facing war elephants in India.

This edition also includes the previously out-of-print Tyrant module, adding further value for players looking for a more complete Alexander-era package.

Contents include: five and a half double-sided countersheets, five double-sided mapsheets, rules manual, Tyrant rules and scenario book, three scenario books, three player aid cards, and one ten-sided die.
