Arena Colossei is a miniature game by Top Hat Games, set in ancient Rome. Choose your favourite combat technique and make your gladiator fight! The game can rely on three great features: amazing miniatures, an original and extremely competitive gameplay, historical accuracy at its highest level for what concerns this specific topic. The game is divided into rounds. To begin with, each player must select which cards (minimum 1) they will play during the current round. Each card represents specific moves and maneuvers the gladiators can perform. The original FightHex System integrates all the information about orientation, armor and view directly on the miniatures' bases! The round begins: the players must choose, alternatively, which move their gladiators will perform, trying their best to predict and counter the opponent's movements. At the end of each round all cards will be refreshed. As soon as two miniatures are engaged, combat begins! Use Combat tiles to Defend or Attack a specific area of your opponent: block enemy attacks and penetrate their guard. In this phase, predicting where your opponent is going to hit and where they will block is essential! If your opponent's Defense tile does not match your Attack tile... your attack is a success, pull out a Damage token from the bag! The Summa Rudis tracks Crowd Favor. Both if you penetrate the enemy's guard or block their attacks, move it towards your side. You win immediately if the Summa Rudis reaches the last space on your side of the track, or if at the end of the 15th round the Summa Rudis is on your side of the track! The game can be played in two modes: Duel (1 Vs 1) and Melee (1 to 6 players). Moreover, each type of gladiator has four experience levels featuring special moves and techniques! -description from publisher
