Eagles is a Diplomacy variant which is set in an alternate history Roman Empire; the game starts in Spring 118 CE shortly after the assassination of Hadrian. The game can accommodate 2-12 players but is recommended for 4-6.

Each player starts in one of a group of given supply centers and has two more from a different group as allies; which ones each player gets is determined randomly.

The basic rules are modified in three ways:


Reinforcements are handled differently.



Many spaces on the board are held by barbarians. A force entering one of these must roll a die and may be destroyed or repelled.



Naval movement and combat is very different, with multiple fleets being able to coexist in the same space, die-rolling, etc.
