Morturi: Gladiators
Morturi Te Salutant: Main Page -> Morturi: Gladiators
This page runs through creating Gladiators.
In a Pick Up Game this process is undertaken by the Lanistae purchasing the Gladiators.
In a Campaign Game the Imperator designs the Gladiators, and then presents them at auction.
1. Find a Miniature!
First, you need a miniature to represent your Gladiator.
Morturi Te Salutant assumes a 28mm scale, played on a standard square grid. This doesn't have to be the case, but its sensible to make sure that everyone playing the game is using miniatures of the same scale!
In an ideal world, every gamer will have access to a full collection of Ancient Roman Gladiator miniatures. In practice, any historical or fantasy mini without guns or modern/scifi trappings will satisfy the aesthetic of most players.
Its even possible to play without minis, instead using painted counters. This author discourages such terrible shortcuts, of course!
2. Purchase Gladiators
In a pick-up game, Gladiators have the following pricings:
- Novicius - 500 Denarii
- Gladiator - 1000 Denarii
- Primus Palus - 1500 Denarii
