Ilium: A Game of Heroes

Sing, goddess, of the anger of Achilles... Ilium: A Game of Heroes is a table-top miniatures game inspired by Homer's greatest epic. Players take on the role of mighty Trojan and Achaean heroes, each supported by a contingent of followers, as they compete for Kleos (κλέος) – deeds of renown that will have their names remembered through time. Played on a 2'x2' (60cmx60cm) table, each player will normally control between 12 and 28 models whose management at key moments will be crucial in securing Kleos. Glory, not survival, will dictate victory. It's the Trojan War played the way Homer wrote it. —description from the publisher
