Description Edit | History

From the Publisher:

Secure your civilization's place in the annals of history, build wonders that will dazzle the hearts of men, build a commercial empire, take charge of the battle fields, launch your ships across the Mediterranean so that they carry to all the world the might and grandeur of your economic, cultural and military power!

The Mythology Expansion for Mare Nostrum introduces several new elements into the game, such as the addition of a sixth player who represents the fabled civilization of Atlantis.

A new map is added depicting western Europe beyond the Pillars of Hercules, and the island of Atlantis. You can pray to the Gods and engage fierce mythological creatures to aid you in your conquests. The more you play, the more new facets to the game you will discover, each more interesting than the last. The world of Mythology is so engrossing that once you enter this ancient realm, you will want to prove, once and for all, that the Mare Nostrum is and always will be Your Sea!

In the Mythology Expansion, you will be able to discover and explore:

  • New people, Atlantians, allowing you to play with 6 players.
  • Old Gods (Poseidon, Mars, Isis and more).
  • A game board that extends the basic map to the west and includes Atlantis, the Iberian peninsula, Gaul, and North Africa
  • Over twenty new heroes (Achilles, Gilgamesh, Minos, Spartacus, and others)
  • Six Mythological creatures (the Phoenix, the Kraken, Centaurs, Behemoths and more).
  • Pottery - the thirteenth resource!

2 Mare Nostrum- Building Tokens_1 (doc)

2 Scoring and Resource tracks AND Heroes/Wonders/Gods Summary
Quite self-explanatory title. I printed these pages onto A4 sticky label paper and then cut out charts and stuck onto magnetic sheets. Then cut the magnetic sheets to size of charts and then stuck sticky laminate on top of printed label paper (final product was thick enough to be stirdy) I then did the same for the pieces found in my other file "Mare Nostrum Building Tokens_1 (doc)". Then I used a large alligator clip (or two) to hold the score/resource tracks upright 1. The Heroes/Wonders/Gods Summary, is borrowed from another post uploaded here and updated (based on the latest consensus I could find from either the designers responses or French translation interpretations) and also includes the Gods 2. The Resource Track, just use a non-permanent white-board marker to update the number of each Resource during the Commodity and Construction sections. (in your group you may decide to allocate 1 person whose role is to update it, as each person calls out what they're entitled to) 3. The Building Track, just slide the appropriate markers as necessary (being magnetic, they shouldn't fall off). Just tally up the appropriate buildings to work out the Directors/Leaders (alternatively, in the space below each nation's name you could write the totals for each Leader/Director with a whiteboard marker ie in format x/y/z= Commerce/God Favour/Political; NB: Military leader is just read off the "legion" token) Hope this helps
