Empire Campaign

[Keith McNelly]

Gents, thanks for your comments. I'm pleased the summary was of interest.

I think DBA is well suited to resolving these campaign generated games. We can resolve two or three very easily in an evening, yet involving a number of players. The one aspect that potentially slows it down is the fact that the Empire boardgame has sequential turns. So occasionally one states turn can impact another. However, the war between Carthage seems to run in isolation from the Successor states - mostly because the Macedonians are in such a pickle!

I have played DBA as a solo game a couple of times. However, lacking familiarity with solo play in general means I'm insufficiently experienced to provide any significant guidance sorry Chris. That said, the change in deployment areas in DBA 3.0 limits options and makes deployment more realistic. I don't think it wouldn't be too hard to play satisfactory solo games with DBA 3.0.
