Under constant threat of attack, you must conquer new lands, oversee dramatic scientific and cultural advances, and lead your people into the age of empire. Expand too quickly and unrest will bring your civilization to its knees; However, if you build up too slowly, you may become just a footnote in history. As one of eight radically asymmetric civilizations, you battle to become the most dominant empire the world has ever seen.

Imperium: Legends is a standalone game that features the three most challenging civilizations in Imperium - the Arthurians, Utopians and Atlantians - as well as the Egyptians, Mauryan, Minoan, Olmec and Qin civilizations, each of which can be played separately. It is fully compatible with Imperium: Classics for players looking to expand their pool of civilizations even further.

The Games Friends: One of our favorite deck builders. The rules are quite complex, but after a few games you get used to it and it plays smoothly. Due to the different peoples, there is a lot of variation in the box and you can really use it for a while. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a card game with a challenge!
