Political Intrigue in the Ancient World

Includes Rules for Solitaire and 2-Player Versions

Republic of Rome is a multi-player, diplomacy game set in ancient Rome which spans more than 200 years of the republic from the Punic Wars to the assassination of Julius Caesar and the onset of the Empire. Three to six players vie to control the Senate while also cooperating for the good fo the state against Rome's enemies. It is this constant balancing act between personal advancement and the welfare of the states that sets Republic of Rome apart from ordinary games. If the players allow their personal goals to interfere too heavily with the republic's best interests, the people may revolt or the state may fall to foreign conquest and all players will be put to the sword.
