13:05 Agree with you, also like clipping and feel it therapeutic😁

I think the box cover art is drawn from a shot of that movie with Channing Tatum playing the centurion. When they're defending against an attack on their post on Hadrian's Wall and make a foray outside the gate. 'The Eagle' (2011) ?

Thanks for presenting this, looking forward to it being played out and that artwork is outstanding for sure 👍

Nice looking game, Compass is really stepping up their quality and catching up to GMT. I've played one of the designers other games Europe in Turmoil and thought it was a solid game, might have to pick this one up.

I'm following author's designs closely, looking forward to your review/playthrough of this one😁

Excellent unboxing and a game that has peeked my interest, however will more than likely be out of my price range this side of the pond, not sure why Compass games are so expensive.

Happy to see this one looking very well produced. I got War for America recently and that one was a big disappointment on the production quality.

Looks quality, have anyone played it?

I like wargames set in Antiquity, I've neglected that era more recently though...

The Art is beautiful but doesn't look 'Late Roman'...the Romans have an early 2nd century look.

Found rule book a mess, not a medium complexity game. It may be but the rulebook gets in the way of playability. Don't know if I will try it. Videos like this just describes contents. 1 or 2 turns played would be more useful.
