Therefore, nations available in Corsica include the autochthonous Corsican Ancient tribes (3 each player), Greeks, Carthagenese, Etrurians, Romans, Vandals, Ostrogoths, Byzantines, Sarracenes, Lombards, Franks, Aragonese, Vatican State, Pisan, Tuscan, Genoese, modern Corse people (2 different factions), Ottoman, English and French.

Furthermore, Corsica comes with and expansion that adds the II World War conflict to the original game, and a 17th game round.

Invasions take place at the beginning of each game round, and the goal for each player will be to first invade the island and then try to hold control of it fighting the new invaders as long as possible, while trying to accomplish his own nation's objetives.
