Equus: Cavalry Battles of the Second Punic War, 218-203 B.C.

An expansion module that adds five historical cavalry engagements from the Second Punic War to the base system. It presents orders of battle, maps, and scenario rules for cavalry actions at Ticinus (218 B.C.), Maharbal’s victory in Umbria (217 B.C.), Castrum Album (214 B.C.), Agathocles’ Tower (204 B.C.), and Cirta (203 B.C.). Players command cavalry formations, execute maneuvers, and resolve mounted combat using the parent game’s mechanics, with scenario-specific terrain and unit details to recreate each engagement’s tactical challenges.
