Description

Alexander's Campaign is a fast paced historical boardgame for 2-3 players that follows every step of Alexander's Campaign in the east, from 334 to 324 bc. All the players are represented on the board by Alexander's pawn which they are using it every turn to do one of their possible actions in comparison with their General's (Hetairoi) unique board and special ability. In every round the players striving to recon or conquer enemy cities to complete their personal agenda, to build strongholds or settlements or temples to gain Conquest points, enforcing taxes to claim valuable military and building resources, pass their turn to mess with other players plans and finally using their fighting/building tactics tiles with the best tactical approach in order to fulfill their personal ambitions and to please their King. 
At the end of the campaign the players are subtracting Conquest points for not using their available fighting formations and add their hidden Conquest points so the player with the most points wins the favour of Alexander III of Macedon as his best man.
