In Thermopylae: The Hot Gates, the players command vastly outnumbered Greek force against a much larger attacking Persian force. The Persians attack the Greeks at a pass called "The Hot Gates," King Leonidas I of Sparta takes command and prepares to hold the pass. Can 300 Spartans and their allies hold for 3 days against 70,000 attacking Persians or will they be surrounded by a flanking force?
Players will take turns playing one of their Spartan attack cards in order to defeat one shown Persian card and possibly a second hidden Persian card in or of the four attacking positions. Choosing when to use one of their Leonidas cards to increase the Spartan attack, or fall back to regroup and possibly get an extra attack die for their new position will be decisions you will need to make.
Distributing attack cards to defeat the right Persian cards at the right time is key to hold out as your Spartan draw deck dwindles. Playing Hero cards can also help in combat but keeping them could make you a legend.
The Spartans win when the last Persian card is drawn; they lose when their last card is drawn or the "Flanking" force arrives.
