This is a mod for the cardgame Illiad which is originally based on the Trojan war between the Greek states and Troy over Helen.
Changes have been made to convert the game into the 7 states of late ZhanGuo (Warring States) period of China ca. 4th-3rd century B.C.
Distinctive elements of late Warring States warfare have been incorporated into the game, whilst trying to stay within the original spirit of the Illiad gameplay.
