"Imperium: Legends Coming from Nigel Buckle and prolific designer David Turczi, Imperium is a series of deck builders that look to replicate the growth of historic and mythic 'nations'. In each of the current boxes there is a phenomenal amount of content in each box. Both the Classics and the Legends boxes come with 8 nations. These can be played against one opponent in solo or two player modes or up to four players otherwise. A big part of managing your nations is how you deal with unrest. Unrest represents turmoil in your nation and should the pile of unrest in the market run out the game will end with the player with least unrest winning. This gives you a secondary way of winning, if you feel you are behind in points. You will also be managing your resources and population as you try to squeeze the most out of each turn, mainly by taking up to 3 actions and using up to 5 exhaust abilities. Sometimes however you will discard your entire hand to 'break through' for a market card. This is a way of grabbing a card without taking any attached unrest. Lastly if you have a hand full of unrest you might want to revolt and get rid of it all. Of course the second two options don't feel as satisfying as the first but if played at the right time can be incredibly powerful tools. Although the main gameplay mechanic is deck building, Imperium feels like more than a deck builder in scope and play. This Classics box contains the Arthurian, Atlantian, Egyptian, Mauryan, Minoan, Olmec, Qin, and Utopian 'nations'. Each playing differently to the other and each having their own solo behaviour. This is a ton of content for a great price. Player count: 1-4 Time: 60-120 minutes Age rating: 14+"
