Saga: Age of Hannibal Gripping Beast

218BC. After having declared war on her rival, Carthage, Rome watches the
Carthaginian army cross the Alps under the command of Hannibal Barca.
This invasion, which brought war to the heart of the Roman Republic was one of the
three Punic Wars, a series of conflicts between Rome and Carthage for control of the
Mediterranean basin.
He inflicted a series of humiliating defeats on his enemies – some of which live on
in the annals of military history – but sixteen years later Hannibal Barca was finally
defeated on the plains of Zama, in his homeland, by a young Roman prodigy called
Scipio Africanus.
But this war between Rome and Carthage involved many nations and cultures. Celts,
Iberians, Numidians and Italiotes all had to choose a side in the struggle between the
two colossi. And the winner of this titanic conflict would become master of Europe –
maybe even the world…

Age of Hannibal is a Saga supplement that covers the three Punic Wars between Rome and Carthage that took place between 264 and 146 BC. This book includes six factions – some of which include multiple variants – each with its own Battle Board, history, Legendary Units, and special rules. As well as these factions, you will find an array of mercenaries who can join your warband, as well as a system of Ruses which allow you to personalise your warband by granting specific advantages or chances to deal treacherous low blows to your enemies. Finally, the supplement ends with Epic Saga, an entirely new way of playing Saga that allows you to play games with warbands of 12 to 18 points on each side. Now you can recreate the greatest battles of antiquity on your table! This game mode includes special rules and a unique method of setting up the game.

You will need a copy of the Saga rulebook to use this supplement.
