Hi Severus,
Hi Matt,
Yes, there's quite a lot of abstraction in C&C. I keep being tempted to add detail to the rules to make them a bit more wargamey, but usually end up scrapping the changes because the rules work very well as they are.
The Epic rules come in the 2nd and 3rd expansions, and enable battles with 30 plus units a side and up to 8 players, with a command structure of a C&C and 3 sub generals and a hand of 6-8 cards from which the CinC allocates 1-3 each turn. We use a 10' or 12' wide table for the 28mm epic games (7' wide for 15mm).
I must have played a couple of hundred games... but took a real pasting last night; did even worse than Antiochus!
Cheers
