Fall of Rome, rules with erratta

Only took me a year and a half, but here are the rules with erratta tied in. Feel free to fix any spelling errors I've made.

Setup Cards for Fall of Rome (S&T 39)

A series of setup cards, two to a sheet, for use with Fall of Rome, S&T 39. Duplicates information given in section 19.0 of the rules. Incorporates errata.

House Rules

The Legions are too strong in this game. Scenarios 1-4 can be easily won with no serious risk of rebellions because the player is not forced to stack many Legions to win battles. Also, it's too easy to conquer areas through Tribute. I suggest to try a game with the attached modified table and some rules changes.
