    Description

    La guerre de Jugurtha (also known as "the Jugurthine's war") is a strategical game covering the war fought by the king of Numidia, Jugurtha, against the Republic of Rome.
    Jugurtha met initially successes against poor roman leaders and a poorly trained roman army (-111 to -110), but had later to cope first with the aristocratic general Quintus Metellus (-109 to -108) and then with the famous Caius Marius, head of the Populares party (-107 to -105).
    Finally, he was betrayed by his father-in-law, king Bocchus of Mauretania and fell in roman hands.

    La guerre de Jugurtha is published in Vae Victis 170.
