• Antike ["Antiquity"] - NEW GAME in 20th September 2006; ukL 39.99
  - yes, it really is in, douglas :-) -
  evolution and competition amongst ancient civilisations, in which you create cities, build temples, sail the seas, open up new settlements, defend their populations against one another (and maybe look to do a bit of conquest), as they look to improve their competitiveness both economically and militarily.
  there's a choice from amongst Arabs, Babylonians, Carthaginians, Egyptians, Germans, Greeks, Persians, Phoenicians & Romans, and of two scenarios on the double-sided gameboard, which provide differing strategic challenges.
  winning is achieved by being the first to gain a particular number of personages of power in the ancient world.
  Designed by Mac Gerdts (graphics by Mac Gerdts & Sreffi Krage) for 2-6 Players Ages 12-96; Playing Time c. 90-120 Minutes [allow two hours to start with - and once players get seriously good at it, games could last three hours or so, if people co-operate well to stop whoever is currently the front-runner winning...]
  the uk wholesalers could not find this, febr'y - march - most of april 2007, and instead supplied:
