This strategic game of ancient warfare allows the player, with a unique new solitaire system, to try and accomplish a lasting peace. All existing solitaire systems on the market have the player take one side for the entire game. Unfortunately this pits the player against a random system with poor strategic direction. In Peloponnesian War you get to play both sides, pitting yourself against the best you can offer. If the game system is winning, the player is forced to continue with the losing side. Success, on the other hand, will eventually force the player to change sides and recover the losing sides fortunes. The duration of the war and the players performance determine victory. In this manner the player competes against himself in the classic tradition of the Greek tragedy. Not only can the player experience the game privately, but a highly competitive two-player version lats you pit your skills with either Delian League or Peloponnesian League against a human opponent. This feature allows a single player to practice sound strategy and tactics while using the same game system in a competitive encounter. If you should find yourself with that rare multi-player rules allow for a large group encounter of the Peloponnesian kind. The game system features historical leaders who conduct strategic operations against enemy coalition. Each three year game turn represents a phase of the 28 year conflict complete with random events, collection of tribute, and rebellions. During each game turn opposing leaders expend money (talents) to move triremes, hoplites, and Calvary forces toward distant objectives in an effort to control strategic lines of communication while destroying the enemy's forces and ravaging his territory. The unique leader system has historic personages, such as Pericles, Alcibiades, Archidamus, Brasidas, Glyppas, Cleon amongst others, who not only represent themselves but also the political factions they lead. This political affiliation determines the type of historically-accurate strategies that they will pursue when they are in charge of the polis. Success for the solitaire systems allows it to maintain its strategy while failure leads to a new strategic direction of the war. The combat system features naval battles, land battles, and sieges. Success in battle depends on the ability of the leader, the quality/size of the forces (Spartan Hoplites and Athenian Treremen), and superiority in cavalry. Victory in battle is critical because careful research reveals the lopsided nature of ancient battles where the winner loses little but the vanquished finds its population on the slave block.
