Will you be the next emperor of Rome?
...or food for the lions?
The roman empire has descended into chaos and several contenders for the throne have emerged. Use diplomacy to pacify your stronger enemies and your mighty roman legions to crush the rest.
The game consists of four Campaign Seasons with new alliances forming at the start of each season. In each round, the players take turns performing two Actions each. At the end of each Campaign Season, taxes are collected and
Victory Points are scored based on the relative number of “influence” tokens owned by the players in each key province. Military units of various types are used to defend a Caesar’s “influence” tokens and to attack the forces of the other Caesars. The Conquest of the Empire cards, once acquired, grant economic, political, and military benefits that can assist a player in achieving victory. Money is essential and can be attained through normal taxes at the end of each campaign season, or through “special taxes”, (but at the cost of increasing Chaos in the empire). Players must use their precious actions, money, and armies to outmaneuver the other players and achieve dominance in as many key provinces as possible. Controlling these key provinces gives players victory points, and eventually the title Caesar.
