    Description

    Eagles is a Diplomacy variant which is set in an alternate history Roman Empire; the game starts in Spring 118 CE shortly after the assassination of Hadrian. The game can accommodate 2-12 players but is recommended for 4-6.

    Each player starts in one of a group of given supply centers and has two more from a different group as allies; which ones each player gets is determined randomly.

    The basic rules are modified in three ways:

    • Reinforcements are handled differently.
    • Many spaces on the board are held by barbarians. A force entering one of these must roll a die and may be destroyed or repelled.
    • Naval movement and combat is very different, with multiple fleets being able to coexist in the same space, die-rolling, etc.
