Description

In Empires of the Ancient World, you're in charge of building and managing your own ancient empire, navigating the complexities of war, trade, and diplomacy. With 3 to 5 players, you'll compete to build the most successful empire, using a combination of military might, strategic trading, and clever leadership. The game's innovative card combat system allows you to wield powerful weapons and tactics, from pikes and swords to war elephants and siege towers. As you battle for dominance, remember that size isn't everything - the player with the largest army will actually lose victory points if they don't use their forces wisely. Alternatively, you can focus on building a thriving trading empire, using your diplomatic skills to outmaneuver your opponents. With its unique blend of strategy and luck, Empires of the Ancient World offers a challenging and engaging experience that will keep you coming back for more.
