	Description [Edit] [History]

This wonderful game by Alan R. Moon and Aaron Weissblum is a mix of territory acquisition, resource management and even a little auctioning thrown in for good measure. Subtitled "Architects of the Eternal City", compete in old Rome for the most spectacular buildings and dominance in the Roman prefectures. Whomever uses the 90 blocks and 40 roofs best will win.
