Nice. Too bad I can't unsee the Turkey thing on the map.
Still, I've heard good things about this game. I need to play my copy.
QuoteThe dice are Roman numerals. Not sure how annoying that'll be yet.
I've seen people complain about it before, in other games such as the Valley Games version of
Republic Of Rome. But it was obvious they never learned Roman Numerals in school... because our Education System began cutting corners years ago (poor millennials).
I didn't have a problem with rolling a few d6s having Roman Numerals. I mean.. it's only low denominations so it's no biggie, and I think it adds to the atmosphere a little. If we were rolling multiple d20s, or even d10s, with them then it would probably start to get annoying for me. Everyone has their sweet spot.
As for the new
Mare Nostrum, it had been on my pre-order wishlist for quite awhile. Unfortunately, I don't think it would get played much, if at all, in a group. Nice to get a "quick look" though. Thanks!
I didn't think I would have much interest in this but that looks really cool! Looking forward to a review of game play.
