"For fast-play, fun, and furious gladiatorial combat you can't beat Sons of Mars. While at times I miss the granularity with regard to the 1-on-1 duels, the rules make up for that with a robust campaign and tournament system."

"Occasionally lacks the historical chrome you'd expect and the mechanics lack depth in places, but it has an excellent campaign system and delivers a fun game."
