New Edition of Polis Civ Building Game Set for October

The light civilization building game Polis is receiving a new edition from Devir Games. In the game, designed by Fran Diaz, two players compete as the Delian League and the Peloponnesian League as they vie for expansion and influence over ancient Greece. Polis is for two players, ages 12+, plays in one to two hours, and will carry an MSRP of $69.99 when it arrives in October.

From Devir Games:

Polis is a two-player civ-lite game set in the beginning of the conflict between the two major poleis of the 5th century B.C: Athens and the Delian League against Sparta and the Peloponnesian League. The winner will be the Empire with more population and prestige at the end of the game.

Both players must secure their supplies and the routes to five markets to trade with them. Every turn you get goods from a territory where you have population supporting your Empire, but you should feed them.

You can fight to control the territories and siege other polis or you might use your diplomacy to convince a polis to join your league. But polis are proud of their independence so you will have to create some projects to gain prestige needed for your military manoeuvres.

This new edition of Polis has updated revised rules and new art that will enhance your game experience.
