Antike Duellum

Antike Duellum – previewed at Spiel 2011 under the name Casus Belli – is a two-player strategy game based on modified rules from Mac Gerdts' Antike. The game includes two scenarios: Punic Wars (Rome vs. Carthago) on one side of the board, and Persian Wars (Greeks vs. Persians) on the other. The goal of the game is to be the first to gain nine ancient personages (Kings, Scholars, Generals, Citizens, Navigators).

Examples of modified rules from Antike:

Modular layout - when a player founds a city, he chooses whether it produces Iron, Marble, or Gold

Over 20 event cards, which provide more variety in the game

Town walls for individual protection of cities

Each "Know-How" costs a different amount - for example, inventing the market is more expensive than inventing the wheel
