Introduction
"Britannia-style" games consist of these general features:

• historical war games
• players direct the forces of more than one side/people/nation
• area movement
• historical victory points scored periodically throughout the game
• reinforcements received based on areas held
• simple, "to-hit" combat resolution

Ancient Conquest II
Biblical with extensions to include Persians and Greeks through Alexander
R.J. Hlavnicka and Dennis P. O'Leary; Excalibre; 1978

Britannia
British isles from the Romans to the Normans
Lew Pulsipher; Gibson Games-1986?/Avalon Hill-1986/Welt der Spiele-1991; 3-5 (4 optimal)
Recent studies such as Britain After Rome: The Fall and Rise, 400 to 1070 by Robin Fleming tell us that the traditional model for the invasion of the Anglo-Saxons is misleading at best. When the Romans left, there was no grand invasion of mighty fleets. Instead, individuals from areas of less vibrant economy came in incredibly small boats, some only big enough to hold one, up to a maximum of about four and moved in. There they settled individually and tried to make a go of it. Sometimes they discovered a Roman villa and explored it, but as if in some post-apocalyptic dream, they did not know how to operate most of what they found there and perhaps only grabbed a souvenir or two. In time many kingdoms arose as those who knew how to seize power did so. There were many more than the seven kingdoms named by Bede – names for at least thirteen are known and there were no doubt many more – and their rulers need not have been Germanic. Indeed, the names of some of the early dynasts are Celtic. Later on, after much agglomeration of territory, kings sought to legitimize their rules with legendary tales of their invasions, a fiction that most still believe today.

Comparison with Britannia

Kampf um Rom
Rome and invading barbarians
Gerhard Kuhlmann and Hartmut Witt; Kuhlmann Geschichtsspiele-1995
This is actually two games in one. Germanica is by Hartmut Witt and Huns, Romans, and Germans by Gerhard H. Kuhlmann. Both deal with the barbarian incursions into Rome.

Chariot Lords
Near East from the earliest history up until about 500 BCE.
Charles Vasey; Clash of Arms-1999
Some differences from the Britannia rules include the following: initial setup is free and counter by counter; order of nations within a turn is random; redeployment phase; mountains count as a double area for movement; leaders do not add to the movement rate; the basic movement rate is three; leaders affect two areas in a round; defender retreats first; maximum number of rounds of combat is fixed (two or three); growth is not based on number of areas owned; units may return from the dead if for each a unit is removed permanently; invaders need not double-stack to overrun; submission rules are generalized; submitted units are not allowed to move.

Vinci
Prehistoric to Medieval Europe
Philippe Keyaerts; Eurogames/Descartes Deutschland-1999; 2-6
Europe is divided into vague and unnamed territories of different types: Agriculture I, Agriculture II, Forest, Mountain and miscellaneous. Some territories also have a port or mining abilities. Civilizations are represented by randomly drawn pairs of counters of various kinds: military, resource, miscellaneous which are drafted by each player. The player then takes a number of tokens based on the number of players and red numbers on the counters which basically fixes the civilization size for its life. Civilizations begin from an edge of the map and move into adjacent territories. There are no dice. Conquest requires a number of tokens depending on the number of defenders and variations caused by terrain and special abilities. When after a few turns the civilization size has dwindled one usually decides to let it "go into decline". This turn, it does not move by the player chooses a new civilization. "Decline" counters are placed on the existing territories leaving only one token each to still earn points. And so on. Normally one plays two, three or four civilizations during the course of a game.

Rus'
Russian early and medieval history
Randy Moorehead; Simulations Workshop-2000; 4
1700 years of Russian history, from the demise of the Scythians to the death of Ivan the Terrible. Players lead Huns, Goths, Mongols and other groups that ravaged ancient and medieval Russia, as well as the great city-states of Kiev, Novgorod, and Moscow. Alexander Nevsky battles the Teutonic Knights, the Mongols seek to destroy all in their path...

Kings & Castles
Medieval Britain
Gary Dicken, Phillip Kendall and Steve Kendall; Ragnar Brothers-2000; 3-4
Game on England and her conquests for up to four by the inventors of History of the World. Sides are represented by individual kings and entirely decided by draft before play even begins. Kings vary by the amount of extra force they add and in their primary spheres of activity. Play itself is diceless (and thus reminiscent of Vinci), the core of the combat system being a rather strange and unique form of arithmetic. The active player's forces must defeat the inactive defenders by the minimum possible amount – pieces are rated at value 1, 2 or 3 – but then only the strongest of these invaders remains. The other unusual mechanism is that over the entire course only twenty-five percent of one's forces are guaranteed to be one's own. The rest are drawn from a bag and may be one's own, but are also often the forces of other players, rebellious indigenous groups or mercenaries usable with any of the above. (There are also three levels of fortification.) The need for a player to clear out his force pool for the next set of forces means often going through unusual gymnastics. For example, he may use other player forces to conquer rebels, then use rebels to conquer them back and finally use his own forces to conquer the rebels. The other unusual feature is that in a four-player game, each player has only six turns and only on half of them may he declare scoring (which occurs for all players). Just as in their previous game, the board is no board at all, but printed on a folded cloth.

Dark Continent
Nineteenth-century Africa
Peter Schutze and Lloyd Krassner; Schutze Games; 2001; 2-4
Players take on the roles of rival European-based powers expanding their influence and control into Africa during the nineteenth century.

Hegemonia
Ancient Greeks
Sven Andressen; City-of-Games-2004; 3-5 (4 optimal)
From Agamemnon and Troy to the wars of Athens/Sparta and Persia, then Alexander the Great and right up through Hannibal and the Roman conquest of the entire known world. Simulating 1600 to 146 BCE in 16 rounds to last about 5 hours.

The Dragon and the Pearl
Ancient and Medieval China
Thom Richardson; Spirit Games-2004; 4
Chinese history from 200-1300 (Han Dynasty to Mongols?). Desktop-published game includes some 200 plastic counters in 4 colours with stickers, color map on heavy paper and two pages of rules. Shipped in a roll without container. Unlike Britannia, does not use special victory point awards for each particular group. More at Andrew Parkin's site

Britannia, second edition
British isles from the Romans to the Normans
Lew Pulsipher; Fantasy Flight Games-2005; 3-5 (4 optimal)
Combines together all the different versions of the rules and adds a method for distributing nations that will provide greater variety in the 3- and 5-player games (optionally also in the 4-player). More at Lew Pulsipher site

"Myths of British Ancestry" by Stephen Oppenheimer is a fascinating article on the early peopling of Britain, mentioning for example that Germanic languages were probably spoken there much earlier than previously thought and also the Norwegian invasions of the isles prior to the Romans. Obviously this game needs a prequel.

Italia
Italian Peninsula from the 400 BCE sack of Rome to 1080
Andreas Steding; Phalanx Games; 2006
The history of the Italian peninsula, Roman Africa and Illyricum from the foundation of Rome to the consolidation of Julius Caesar in the first scenario and in the second, from the invasions of the Visigoths to the consolidation of Charlemagne.
