Mare Nostrum is all about the expansion of one’s lands, the construction of new cities, and the dispatching of caravans to take advantage of rare commodities that can either be traded or exploited to build constructions and eventually wonders of the world.
But diplomacy and trade are but one path to greatness. The expansion of your navy and armies can take what should be rightfully yours. Hiring great leaders will further expand your boundaries in quick time.
In Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition), one player takes on the role of the treacherous overlord, and up to four other players take on the roles of courageous heroes.
Possibly the most popular, mass market war game. The goal is conquest of the world.
In this game the players follow either the rules for Monopolists or those for Competitors. Competitors charge fair rents, build as soon as they own a property, place four houses (green) at the most, after which they build a hotel (red) and occasionally go to Price War.
Every card contains two easy, two medium and two hard questions. Your die roll decides, what difficulty level question you will get! If you answer correctly, you may throw the die again, but you also get to advance on a bonus track, where you get to steal points from your opponents, you get easier questions ect. The die roll resolves your destiny … but your own knowledge seals it!
