Overview

From the introduction to the rules:

... about the legendary conflict between the ancient Greeks and the city of Troy. This battle, conventionally dated 1185 BC is the basis of Homer's epic poem, The Iliad and other Greek and Roman works.

The map portrays the site of Troy, as described by Homer. Each playing piece represents a specific hero of one of the armies, together with the common foot soldiers led by him. Chariots are also present. Acts of intervention by the gods of Greek mythology are included in the game.

Boxed micro-game includes 240 counters, 16"x24" map, plastic pouch, 16-page rulebook and 1 die.

Godly intervention is depicted in the form of Intervention Chits.
