Two opposing heroes — Hector of the Trojans and Achilles of the Greeks — seek the favor of the gods to lend them support and tip the scales of fate. Only one side will emerge victorious, its hero becoming the legend of the Iliad. Iliad is the first game in the Mythos Collection, a line of two-player titles by Bitewing Games featuring strategy and mythology. Review: Knizia’s Gift to the 2 Player Genre. - I have several games by Dr. Knizia. Perviously, I would have said Scotten-Totten was my favorite. This game is in a class by its own. From the onset it is a struggle, simple rules but cutthroat tactics. May stand as a classic. ## Features - THE TROJAN WAR HAS BEGUN! - Vie for the favor of the gods in this 2-player Trojan War struggle between Hector and Achilles. Iliad is the first game in the Mythos Collection, a line of 2-player games. - HOW TO PLAY - Iliad is a 2-player tile-laying and manipulation game. You'll place tiles, activate special abilities, complete rows to gain tokens, and collect all five gods. - SIMPLE TURNS, AGNOIZING DECISIONS - Turns are dead simple — place a tile then draw a new one. Players face tough tactical trade-offs as they must decide whether to compete for gods or points. - WHAT'S IN THE BOX? - Inside Iliad: 1 Cloth Board, 29 Success Tokens, 18 Blue Hector Tiles, 18 Red Achilles Tiles, 1 Success Tokens Bag - CRITICAL ACCLAIM - "I love Iliad. This is what I could call the perfect mid-weight Knizia." - Dan Thurot (Space-Biff) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0D9R27F65 | | Age Range Description | 10+ | | Best Sellers Rank | #305,211 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #7,645 in Board Games (Toys & Games) | | Brand Name | Bitewing Games | | Color | Red and Blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2 Reviews | | Estimated Playing Time | 30 minutes | | Grenre | Strategy | | Included Components | Layout | | Item Dimensions | 7.9 x 7.9 x 2.3 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W | 7.9"L x 7.9"W | | Item Type Name | Board Game | | Item Weight | 498 g | | Manufacturer | Bitewing Games | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 120 | | Manufacturer Part Number | BTW1200 | | Material Type | Paper | | Model Name | Iliad | | Model Number | GME-BTWIL | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 2 | | Operation Mode | manual | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Size | 201 cm x 5.84 cm | | Subject Character | Hector and Achilles | | Theme | History | | UPC | 691835952857 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![Bitewing Games Iliad Board Game, Reiner Knizia Tile-Placement, 2 Players - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bIyt8M01L.jpg) ![Bitewing Games Iliad Board Game, Reiner Knizia Tile-Placement, 2 Players - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81XKq4izgEL.jpg) ![Bitewing Games Iliad Board Game, Reiner Knizia Tile-Placement, 2 Players - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81MAIIAKfJL.jpg) ![Bitewing Games Iliad Board Game, Reiner Knizia Tile-Placement, 2 Players - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91DkxbRYlSL.jpg) ![Bitewing Games Iliad Board Game, Reiner Knizia Tile-Placement, 2 Players - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EaNBokhSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Knizia’s Gift to the 2 Player Genre. *by M***L on July 9, 2026* I have several games by Dr. Knizia.
