Description Edit | History

From the designers:

Gloria Mundi is a board game for 2-6 players set during the fall of Rome. You're a Roman statesman struggling to survive in this era of cultural decline and political chaos. While foreign invaders and domestic incompetents devour the last resources of the Empire, you'll try to build your career out of the rubble. You start in Rome, and the Visigoth starts on the outskirts of a spiral board. Each turn, you play and purchase cards that produce resources and give you special effects, as well as allowing you to move further out from the doomed Eternal City. Then the Visigoth moves toward Rome, destroying your cards... unless you spend your precious resources to bribe him. When the Visigoth reaches Rome, or a player reaches the outskirts of the empire, the game is over and the player who has fled the furthest from Rome wins.

9 Gloria Mundi - Rules Rewrite
I recently purchased Gloria Mundi & found that the rules were difficult to understand. Reading posts for the game, here on the Geek, it appears that I am not alone. I therefore decided to rewrite the rules to hopefully make them clearer & here they are. I have also included an examples page at the end that hopefully makes things like Goth movement clearer. I hope you find them helpful. If there is anything that is unclear or incorrect, please add a note here & I will see what needs to be done. If you find it useful, please give it a thumb. Designed to be printed on A4 pages.
