Storm Over Jerusalem: The Roman Siege is a two-player area-impulse wargame about the siege of 70 CE. The Roman player must breach successive walls and seize key areas before time expires; the Judean player uses interior lines, leaders, and tactical cards to delay the assault. Alternating impulses, limited hands, reinforcement zones, siege towers, and supply restrictions turn the compact map into a tense contest of tempo and attrition.
