Exilian

So, I need to change the name of the game as someone else is making a skirmish wargame atm called Age of Tyrants and I don't want to tread on toes. Which of the above names do people like?

I don't have any firm view (so no vote, I'm afraid), but I do have some rather disjointed thoughts.

My suspicion is that "turannos" is not going to mean much to people unless they're historians with some knowledge of the relevant period; on the other hand, it's a nice distinctive trademarkable word, which might work on combination with a more descriptive phrase or subtitle.

"A Game of Tyrants" ought to be sufficiently distinct to avoid attention from a certain other "A Game of..." franchise, but I don't know how litigious they are. Then again, "A Game of..." feels a bit odd to me as the name of a game.

An alternative, getting away from the explicit reference to tyrants, might be something based on "Polis", as being the setting that each player is trying to gain control of.

I feel the tyrant reference is better than the polis one, as polis perhaps makes people expect classical rather than archaic Greece (to the extent that people know the difference).

"A/The Game Of" perhaps works better as a subtitle, leaning toward the first option presented?

Option No.1 for me.

Thanks :)
