August 15, 2012 by dracs
Unless you've had your head in the sand you'll know that Gale Force 9 are bringing out a new board game based around the phenomenal TV series Spartacus: Blood & Sand and Gods of the Arena.
Well it's almost time to step into the arena as we take a look at this awesome new trailer for Spartacus: A Game of Blood and Treachery!
Fans are sure to be excited over this upcoming board game in which you take on the role of a dominar of a Roman house, as you replicate the political intrigue, treacherous diplomacy and bloody combat that has made this show such a great success.

If this trailer has left you as excited as it has left me and you just need to get your hands on this game than you're in luck as Gale Force 9 will be running demo games at GenCon, as well as having a limited number of copies for you to get a hold of.
But if you just cannot wait than Wayland are already accepting pre-orders. Just follow the link at the side of the page to assure yourself of a copy of Spartacus: A Game of Blood and Treachery when it comes out in September.
Has this trailer left you drooling for the chance to engage in gladiatorial combat? Will you be pre-ordering your copy today?

The show is a lot better than people give it credit. It’s bloody, yes. It’s full of nudity, yes. But that was what ancient Rome was like, especially when it comes to the world of the arena. I love this show and have watched every episode so far. Sure the actors can be a bit wooden sometimes but at points this show has been damn near Shakespearean in its story and themes. I love the multiple layers of betrayal and intrigue. In terms of the game, I won’t know until I see it played/reviewed. The first thing I will say… Read more »
They should have used Andy Whitfield for the artwork instead of McIntyre.
