Titan (board game)

Modern Hobby Strategy Games

Titan is a fantasy board wargame for two to six players, designed by Jason B. McAllister and David A. Trampier and first published by Avalon Hill in 1980, with later editions from Valley Games. Each player commands an army of mythological creatures, such as gargoyles, unicorns, trolls and griffons, organized into legions and led by a single titan figure whose survival determines the fate of that player's entire army. Play combines a map-based movement phase, in which legions maneuver across a hexagonal map trying to grow stronger by absorbing weaker creatures, with a separate tactical battle board used whenever opposing legions clash, giving the game a distinctive two-layer structure.
