Hoplomachus: Training Grounds
A hex-based tactical game set in an ancient gladiatorial arena. Players deploy and move gladiators, use tactic and equipment tokens, and fight opposing units while competing for crowd favor. Each player’s champion begins inactive and defenseless, becoming available once the crowd supports it. Players protect their champion, control key arena spaces, eliminate enemy tacticians, and attack opposing champions. This streamlined version uses a smaller selection of basic gladiators and is designed for faster games, teaching, travel, and tournaments.
