Pandemic: Fall of Rome
Specifikationer
Specifikationer
At the height of its power, the Roman Empire controlled over two million square miles and contained over one hundred million people. During the centuries of its existence, the empire brought with it great advances in engineering, architecture, science, art, and literature. By the early 5th century, decades of political corruption, economic crisis, and an overstretched military had severely impacted the empire’s stability. This paved the way for serious incursions from aggressive barbarian tribes, leading to a decline from which Rome would never recover. Now, the citizens, soldiers, and allies of Rome must unite to protect the Empire.
Combining the cooperative gameplay of Pandemic with innovative new mechanisms, Pandemic: Fall of Rome takes players back in history to the world’s greatest empire: Rome. A weakened military has left the borders open to invasion from countless tribes such as the Anglo-Saxons, Goths, Vandals, and Huns. As you march through the Roman Empire, you must recruit armies, fortify cities, forge alliances, and confront the invading hordes in battle.
Merely defending Rome is not enough; players must find a way to halt the incursions and find peace with their neighboring peoples. Players collect sets of matching colored cards to forge an alliance with the various tribes. In doing so, they gain the ability to use cards matching the tribe to convert other members of that tribe into Roman soldiers, further enhancing their ability to hold the line against other invaders.
Take on unique roles with special abilities to improve your team’s chances of protecting against the invaders. Work together, use your skills wisely, and stop the fall of Rome!
Pandemic: Fall of Rome includes a solo play mode where the player takes on the burden of being Emperor, commanding three different roles to try and protect the city from the invading hordes. Players looking for a more difficult game can try the "Roma Caput Mundi" challenge by adding more Revolt cards to the deck; they must also respect the law of Rome that Roman Legions are not allowed in the city.
