2ND EDITION CHANGES

Many minor changes were done for the 2nd Edition to improve play balance and to make the game more enjoyable. A partial list of those changes is provided below:

Most of the event cards now have an Action Point value of 2. There are now only five 3-cards, and three 1-cards. This was done to ensure that no game became unfairly balanced due to repeated lop-sided card draws. Players must now squeeze all they can from each event card to gain an edge over their opponent.
The Gallic IM graphic was changed to use a more Gallic-style image.
Sieges now cost only 2 MPs, instead of 3. This was done to break the Gallic “Turtle Strategy.” The Siege Table was modified slightly to accommodate this change.
Strongholds now require 3 Siege Points to remove.
The DRM for Intercepting and Avoiding Battle into a friendly-controlled space was reduced from +2 to +1.
Major Uprising now costs 2 Action Points to declare, but a Major Uprising now comes with free use of the Gallic Council Box.
There were no changes made to the map.

Caesar: Rome vs. Gaul is a fast-playing, easy-to-learn, two-player card-driven game on Caesar’s conquest of Gaul. One player plays Caesar as he attempts to gain wealth and fame in Gallia at the expense of the Gauls. The other player controls all the independent tribes of Gaul as they slowly awake to the peril of Roman conquest.

Caesar: Rome vs. Gaul uses many of the core rules and systems used in Hannibal: Rome vs. Carthage. Players are dealt 8 cards at the start of each turn and use their cards to move their armies and place control markers. Players familiar with Hannibal: Rome vs. Carthage will quickly learn this game.

The game covers the height of the Gallic Wars, the period between 57 BC and 52 BC when Caesar campaigned back and forth across Gaul putting down one rebellion after another and invading Germania and Britannia. Units are individual Roman Legions or Gallic Tribes. Each turn represents one year.
