Successors: The Battles for Alexander's Empire

A card-driven wargame about the wars among Alexander’s former generals after his death. Players command generals, raise and maneuver armies across a historical map, and resolve battles through card play and combat mechanics. Each turn players use hand management and event (Tyche) cards to activate leaders, recruit units, and attempt to control regions. Conflict and negotiation over succession and territory emerge as players pursue political and military objectives until independent kingdoms form.

No me gusto, no es mal juego pero no es para mi. En la única partida que he jugado todo me salió mal y desde antes de poder jugar ya me habían hecha de la partida. Condiciona mucho la posición con los líderes y las cartas.
