The name of the game in German means "age of antiquity". Ancient nations found cities, erect temples, sail the seas, do battle, and make scientific progress. Their legions and galleys open new regions for settlement, and defend against the enemy. For action in two different ancient operational theaters, players choose a nation from among the Greeks, Romans, Germanic tribes, Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Persians, Arabs, Egyptians and Babylonians. ANTIKE is not a game of conquest. The ancient nations do not compete to establish the biggest kingdom. Instead, each nation tries to win kings, scholars, generals, citizens and navigators over to its side. The nation that succeeds in gaining a given number of ancient personages first wins the game. Lead an ancient nation to victory! But watch out for your enemies, who will try to destroy your temples! ANTIKE, for 2 to 6 players aged 12 and up, is a fast-moving strategy game, rich in variety and with easy-to-follow rules. Winning depends not on the luck of cards or dice, but on imaginative planning and smart diplomacy. Playing time: approx. 90 to 120 minutes. Thanks to Carlton Dempfle for the translation into English.

Each side has 50 provinces, separated by red land borders, blue sea borders, or combination red and blue land and sea borders. Each province contains the site of a potential city - marble cities are white, iron cities are blue, and gold cities are yellow. Each side of the game board also contains • At upper right corner, a rondel with eight wedges in a circle, providing the nation with a choice of actions. • At lower left, a progress chart showing technical, economic, and political advances made by each nation • To the right of the progress chart, a score card, showing the running total of ancient personages won by each nation.

Arrange each stack numerically, This way a glance at the top card tells you how many cards remain in stack. Place the marble (white), iron (blue) and gold (yellow) chips, the 30 coins, and the 20 white temples next to the game board, for use as needed. 2. Distribute nation cards First, decide which side of board to play on, and how many will play. For 2 players, 4 nations take part. For 3-6 players, there is one nation per player.
