	Description Edit \| History

Millionen von Schwalben is a (fairly satirical) soccer-themed game. Each player manages several soccer teams in a world championship tournament, trying to become rich. Matches are played with cards and die rolling, and different teams have different abilities. The action and country cards allude to many real-life events in soccer.

Even though team success in the tournament is rewarded, the 'big money' is made through betting on the matches. Interestingly, the referee (another player) places bets, as well..

The game also contains 54 soccer-themed cards for Anno Domini - Erfindungen.
