Very good game...

Hannibal: Rome and Carthage in the Second Punic War is a new and innovative turn-based strategy game that puts you in command of the Carthaginian military during a period of total war over land and sea with the young Roman Republic. With this military juggernaut of the ancient world at your disposal, you will vie for control over Italy, Carthage, Spain and the Mediterranean Sea using a combination of strategic political maneuvering and sheer tactical skill both on land and sea. Play consists of two layers; the first is a strategic layer where you must prudently steer your forces to the destruction of Rome’s army and the ultimate destruction of the Republic and city itself. At your disposal are a variety of unit types and historical commanders from which to form your armies. On the tactical scale, when meeting the enemy in battle, skilled leadership and a knack for war come into play as you use a simple but engaging battle system to best your opponents.

After playing a while I think this is a very nice game. Kind of unique.

Area based moves, tile units, strategy cards and good AI

There's a demo[:)]

This really is a great game. It is very interesting how deep the play is given the limited number of territory regions and units. A very immerse game--It is one of those great games that eats up hours of your time with you scarcely noticing.

This seems like a great game to port to ios, by the way. I would LOVE to have this on my iPad.

Thanks for the compliment!

That is a good suggestion. You are wise like your name. [:D]

Right now, I am hip deep in work on the new game. Which is what I have been saying for two years, I know! What that is - finally - finished, I will turn my thoughts to iOS. I would certainly like to support iPad and possibly some other tablets.
