From Augustus to Napoleon, from Qin Shi Huang to Suleiman: take the throne of one of history's great empires, expand it, and try not to lose it.
EMPIRES: Rome, Byzantium, the French Empire, the Mongol Empire, China, Persia, the Ottoman Empire, the Mughal Empire, and the World Thrones (Charlemagne, Mansa Musa, Pachacuti, Meiji, Catherine the Great and more).
TERRITORIES: every player counts the Territories they hold. An empire grows, shines, and then strains under its own weight.
KEYWORDS
Conquer X: gain X Territories. Revolt X: lose X Territories.
Golden Age: this text applies while you control 5 or more Territories.
Overreach: this text applies while you control 9 or more Territories.
Succession: triggers when your Emperor leaves play.
Cards cost Gold (the number in the top corner). Emperors, Generals, Officials and Armies have Might, used in battle, and Legacy. At the end of each round you score the Legacy of the cards you control; the first player to reach 30 Legacy wins. Conquer fast like Genghis Khan, build like Shah Jahan, or hold the line like Hadrian: every empire is remembered for something.
