Comments
Designer Richard Berg's "The Ancient World" series moves to a more ambitious level, with Carthage, the first of two games on The Punic Wars, the greatest event in the ancient world and a true turning point in history. Carthage concentrates on Punic events that take place in Carthage/Africa as well as Sicily, with the main event being the massive 1st Punic War, which has received scant attention from the hobby.

Update
v1.2.1 makes the module easier to use, but doesn't really change things around. I had talked to the module creator some time ago, but he was too busy to follow up on my suggestions (which he allowed seemed good). I asked for permission to post my update to his module here some time ago, but received no reply,. So, over a year later, I'm going ahead and posting my small update to the module:

Fixes in version 1.2.1:


 * City militia is no longer 'non-stackable', which makes them disappear on the main map.
 * 'Layers' added to the main map, so that militia and IDS markers show up, but do not get selected at the same time as regular units.
 * 'Scattered' marker added.
 * Hex edges no longer legal locations. (Not really needed, and decreases the need for 'precision aiming'.)
