Foundations of Rome: Roads of Fortune Expansion (Kickstarter Special)

Board Game Geek gives this an average player rating of 8.67! Designed for 1 to 5 players and published in 2023, this is a Kickstarter - exclusive expansion for the Foundations of Rome board game by Arcane Wonders. It's a must - have add - on but requires the Foundations of Rome core game (sold separately). Note that paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. In this expansion, smart architects can no longer focus only on the heart of Rome. The city's edges, once seen as worthless, now connect to the outside world. Travelers like merchants, diplomats, and soldiers are eager to trade knowledge and services at the city gates. Controlling Rome's borders means seizing untold wealth! In Roads of Fortune, players who control the play area's edges get powerful new abilities from variable Road boards. As the ultimate expansion for the Foundations of Rome experience, it works with all existing modules, including the Gardens of Ceres solo challenge. It also offers great improvements like better component trays and new player aids. At TheGameSteward, we're excited to support this campaign. A big part of your spending on this expansion will go towards backing new Kickstarter games.

How to Use: First, make sure you have the Foundations of Rome core game. Then, add the Roads of Fortune expansion components to the core game. The expansion mainly focuses on the edges of the play area. When setting up, place the variable Road boards according to the rules. During the game, try to gain majority control over the edges to unlock powerful new abilities. As travelers approach the city gates, make smart trades with them to increase your wealth. Note: This expansion is a Kickstarter exclusive. Paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. The core game is sold separately. Maintenance: Keep the game components in a dry and cool place. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight or moisture. If the component trays get dirty, you can clean them gently with a dry cloth. For the player aids, handle them carefully to prevent tearing.
