Description

Description from the publisher:

Chariot races had, in the ancient Rome, lot of followers. Not only the people frequented the races, but emperors, senators, intellectuals, writers crowded the circus.
The Aurigae, who drove chariots with two, three, four, sometimes eight or ten horses, where idols of the crowd, but the people didn’t support particularly the driver, but one of the four traditional teams.
Quadrigae (demo version) reproduces the Roman chariot races through a fast system which gives you the chance to revive a whole day at the races in an evening. The charioteers, each one with his own name and characteristics, assume the role of the captain looking for the victory or of a helper who try to facilitate his captain blocking and attacking the adversaries. Not all of them will arrive whole at the end: some will fall without damage but humiliation, some others will remain stunned and out of the races; the unluckiest… will die. As the owner of a team (Dominus factionis) you’ll decide the tactics of the race and sign on your register the won races, good results and injuries.
The quadrigae (chariots) move along a 100 x 28 cm board reproducing the Circus Maximum. Each chariot can make two phases of advance and one phase (optional) of aggression. The movement consists in an automathic advancement of 2 steps and a bonus of 1 step depending on the strengthness of the chariot.
