Bought this Avalon Hill board wargame years ago. Have played it several times as both the Romans and the Jewish defenders. Moderately difficult as the Romans and near impossible as the Jews.

Also read the description of the Jewish Rebellion by Josephus ...

And, no ... not the Josephus from "History of the World, Part 1" ...

Still, I can't help but admire the Roman Military Machine. They were fighting an enemy that was determined to resist to the last man. The Romans just methodically ground them down.
