Description

In 164 BC, at the battle against Nicanor, Judah Maccabee's brother Eleazar brought down the General's war elephant breaking the military hold of the Seleucid Empire over Israel. Upon that victory, Judah lead his Maccabean army to liberate the rest of the land of Israel and reclaim the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

But the Maccabees did not have enough oil to light the menorahs to rededicate the Temple. Now you must lead a band of Maccabees and acquire enough oil to light the new eight-stemmed menorah called a Channukiah. But beware there are still remnants of the Seleucid army roaming the lands trying to thwart your efforts.
