At the height of its power, the Roman Empire covered a vast amount of territory and brought major advancements in engineering, architecture, science, art, and literature. Corruption and economic crisis has made the empire unstable and paved the way for aggressive barbarian tribes to attack.

I have tried it only as one player and I did not particularly like the original pandemic, however I’ve enjoyed many mechanics such as the the tribes having paths to Rome and revolts putting the discard pile on top of the barbarian deck. However, it felt repetitive and not particularly exciting.

A great game that merges strategy with theme. It is a step up for pandemic strategy-wise with new things such as how the barbarians travel but also adds the excitement of battling with dice rolls. The downside is the dice makes the game luckier but I don't mind that as it adds to the theme and it does not make the game overly lucky in my opinion. But like Pandemic, the alpha gamer issue is still there. For me, this replaces base Pandemic and I can't recommend it more as a co-op game.

Excellent iteration of Pandemic. Works better than Rising Tide and Iberia. The dice add a level of uncertainty to the planning that makes the game fresh.
