About the game
What you do in a play session
The story goes like this: the once glorious Roman Empire is in tatters, with corruption gnawing from within and barbarian hordes like Anglo-Saxons, Goths, Vandals, and Huns knocking at the gates. Your mission? Recruit armies, fortify strategic cities, forge alliances with tribes (yes, even with the 'enemies'!), and, of course, engage in epic battles. But it's not enough just to defend; you must find peace and reverse this tide of invasions.
Each player takes on a unique role, with special abilities that will be crucial for the team's success. You'll manage cards to seal alliances, using them to convert barbarians into Roman soldiers and strengthen your defenses. And if things get tough, there's a solo mode where you, as Emperor, command three roles to try to hold the line. Want an even greater challenge? The 'Roma Caput Mundi' mode increases the difficulty with more Revolt cards and a tense rule: no Roman legions allowed inside the city! It's a feast for those who enjoy strategy, history, and a good cooperative challenge.
