Wage Ancient Warfare In Milito From PSC Games
April 21, 2019 by cassn
Milito is a two-player card-driven wargame about the complexities of ancient warfare. Designed by Martin Wallace and published by PSC Games, in Milito you are the head of an Ancient army, making vital tactical decisions which will spell victory or defeat for your troops!
Each player will command troops specific to their army, and play unit cards to take control of the battlefield. Use lighter troops to hold the enemy at bay, or move your well-armoured infantry forward and drive the enemy forces back.
Utilize the manoeuvrability of your cavalry to tactical advantage, or use flank attacks and army leaders to create strategic depth.
There are six ancient armies included in Milito: Achaemenid Persian, Alexandrian Macedonian, Ancient British, Carthaginian, Imperial Roman, and Republican Roman.
Units are rated for speed, attack strength, defence strength, and other battle modifiers, based on their historical counterparts. Leader cards provide combat and placement advantages and come with their own special abilities. Use your leaders and your troops to make interesting tactical decisions to decimate your opponent's armies and win the war!
Milito is an interesting game which provides tactical variety without complex components.
"Decimate your opponent's armies and win the war!"

Pulled out of this due to card design, you don’t get what you see here, instead there is a very thick white boarder all around them making them look aweful. They said they had to have a boarder which is BS, as other game cards dont
I see what you mean about the border, it’s rather large. Nonetheless I would assume that this is an issue with the particular printer they’ve chosen to produce these who are probably stating a given ‘safe’ artwork area against the card trim area.
As you say, other manufacturers are able to produce borderless output but in this case I’ll assume their chosen supplier can’t. Given they’re aiming for a June release they haven’t got time to shop around.
The problem is that a boarder will make it even worse if the cards are not 100% aligned correctly as this will be very noticeable due to the border. With full print the art is larger than the card so you always get a full picture, prett much the same way your home printer does if you do borderless prints.
Yep, those borders are huge. Really detracts from the artwork. A slim white border would be okay, but those are nasty.
Won’t touch PSC anymore especially any KS they do. I was involved in the nightmare Battle of Britain KS. Cheap parts especially the stands the planes won’t stay on complete waste of time and money.
