Epaminondas is a strategy board game invented by Robert Abbott in 1975. The game is named after the Theban general Epaminondas known for the use of phalanx strategy in combat and the concept of the phalanx is integral to the game.Epaminondas was originally introduced in Sid Sackson’s A Gamut of Games as Crossings. While the original version used an 8×8 checkerboard the current game uses a 12×14 board and different rules for capture.
