100 BC ALPHA
GREAT BATTLES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD

Below is the alpha version of the new 100 BC wargaming rules for ancient warfare, which uses WTJ's Republique rules engine to recreate warfare in antiquity. Each portion of the rules is being reviewed for period effects and updated where research guides us. Playtesting is now underway as the rules march steadily toward the beta development stage, we encourage players to email comments and suggestions to webmaster@wtj.com. Last update: June 8, 2026. These rules are suitable for use with all standard miniature wargaming figures, and currently offer the combat charts needed for game play. The charts and supporting texts (if any) are completely free and no purchases are required.
