Here are some photos of a Command and Colors Ancients game, the Battle of Crimissos, that Rick and I played down at the Vikings Club about five years ago. I was Hasdrubal and commanded the Carthaginians, while Rick was Timoleon and commanded the Syracusans. I can’t really remember what happened but I think the Carthaginians won!
