Duodecim Scriptorum
Do you want to sell your copy of this game?
Description
This game is sometimes referred to an "Roman backgammon" but is different not only because of the board-- which could be drawn in the dirt using "12 Lines" and hence the name-- and because the Romans used tetrahedral knuck-bones instead of the more modern six-sided dice, the game is also more like the backgammon variant Acey-Ducey [traditional among seamen] in that the pieces start off the board, that rolls must be exact to take a piece off the board and other details.
