Salammbo Hints

How do I answer these questions?

  • 1 of 10: This is the easiest test since third grade spelling, I promise you.
  • 2 of 10: If you answer a question wrong, just listen to the right answer. Then ask again, and this time, give the right answer.
  • 3 of 10: The questions come around again and you get a second chance. There's no penalty for wrong answers.
  • 4 of 10: Here are the questions and answers in case you want to save a little time.
  • 5 of 10: You surprise the enemy in his camp in the middle of the night. You can either entirely circle him or leave him a way out. Which would you choose to do?
  • 6 of 10: If your cavalry is greater than that of the enemy, will you seek a battle on the plains or in rugged terrain?
  • 7 of 10: While sacrificing prior to the battle, twelve birds of prey fly off to your right. What do you do?
  • 8 of 10: If you're fighting with your back to the sea, are you better off attacking at day's end or in the morning?
  • 9 of 10: Is a lunar eclipse a good or bad omen for an army that must flee?
  • 10 of 10: If the enemy camp is to the west, and you've camped out to the east, do you attack in the morning or wait until the afternoon?
