Troy (game)

Modern Conquest and War Games

Troy is a board wargame published in 1977 by Chaosium, designed and illustrated by Donald Dupont, simulating various sieges of the city of Troy across different historical and archaeological periods. It is a two-player, hex-grid tactical game in which one side directs the defense of Troy and the other commands the besieging army, released as one of Chaosium's early ziplock bag games. Covering several historical layers of the site rather than a single legendary conflict, the game lets each side refight the city's defensive struggles under differing archaeological-era scenarios.
