About the game

What you do in a play session

In *The End of the Triumvirate*, you become Caesar, Pompey, or Crassus, vying for control of Rome through military strategy, political maneuvering, and skill development. Each turn has three phases: **Supply** (collect gold or legions from provinces), **Movement** (move your leader to recruit or attack), and **Actions** (persuade citizens, produce weapons, or boost influence). Win by conquering 9 provinces (military), being elected consul twice (political), or maxing both competences (skill). Designed for 3 players (with a 2-player variant), the game keeps tension high — one misstep, and your rivals pounce!
