About this game
Armati II is a second edition of the Armati rules system that now enforces the fatigue rules and attempts to combine Armati and 'Advanced Armati. New material to expand biblical period chariot armies has been added but some of the later armies have been dropped. Army lists are included with the rule book which is not bound. This method was introduced in the hope that additional material can be released easily. Sequence of play: Initiative Phase - winner decides order of play for subsequent phases Missile Phase - alternate Movement Phase - alternate Combat Phase - simultaneous Rally Phase - alternate Reimplements: Armati: Rules and Lists for Ancient, Medieval & Renaissance Wargaming
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
- Rules load. At 3.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
- Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
