Age of Mythology

Quick look by Moritz Eggert

An interesting attempt to create a kind of hybrid between "Puerto Rico" and a fantasy wargame. In fact it is the mechanics stolen from the latter that really shine in this game, as the actual battle rules need revision (proven by the myriads of house rules for this game). The miniatures are cool as always with Eagle Games, but sometimes one gets the impression that the game wants to be cleverer than it actually is. Player interaction is limited - the players sitting diagonally in a 4 player game will never have to do something with each other except competing for victory.
