Listened to audiobook on Thucydides’ History of Peloponnesian War. Has anyone played board game titled Hellenes: Campaigns of the Peloponnesian War? Would make a great multiplayer game. A&A has WWI, Napoleon, Punic 270 BC, variants, but not Peloponnesian Wars (Athens vs Sparta). Would be interested in working together with anyone willing to develop a Greek city state variant for this website.

The new edition is awesome! It’s far superior to 3rd Ed, imho.

Can you elaborate on some of the improvements, so that I may hopelessly convince myself to buy it, knowing i’ll never play?

What did they get the rules under 12 pages?

They re-did how the tech tree works. Now instead of following this weird bath, techs just have requirements you must meet before you can get them. Also, they added a new phase of the game called the Agenda phase, which happens after someone takes Mecatol Rex. During the Agenda phase there will be 2 political cards resolved.
Those are the major differences. There are some tweaks here and there with the races and rules.

It is quite interesting.
