This was my first step on the quest. A good start, but certainly not the Grail. Mare Nostrum has an ancient civilization theme, an economy, and military conquest, but no tech tree and your civ doesn't advance or evolve over time.

Took about 4 hours the one time I played it before. I really loved it and want to play it again soon.

We don't have a copy of this.

It depends on who you're playing with. I can certainly see its merit when playing with more casual gamers, but since I typically play with seasoned gamers and with the extra hero variant (which also makes the Pyramids more difficult to build), I personally don't find it necessary.

It is. Mare Nostrum with six enthusiastic players is a sublime gaming experience.


I LOVE this game when it "clicks", but I've been in on only a few sessions with engaged, enthusiastic, capable players, and one of those times certainly warranted the praise Numskull is heaping on it

But the other times it felt over before it started or it was a slow crawl through barbed wire and mud to get to the end game.

I'd love to buy it from you but can't really justify the cost for a game that I probably won't be able to get to the table too often.

Crazy how this one has went from a hard to sell one to a rare game.

I bought my copy for 5€ at 12spiel 3 years ago and traded it away in a MT for something in this price category. Now I regret. :-(

My first goal is to pimp out the copy of Mare Nostrum I got a while ago with a crushed box. I already have an idea what I want to replace the box with and when I get my raise or new job (still waiting for the interview) I'll buy the expansion in English to replace the German components. I'll post a while thing when it's done.

I keep it around in hopes that somebody will try it with this simple variant - no 12-card auto-victory. That has to be the worst victory condition of any game I've ever played.

yeah, we usually play that you need an extra hero/monument to win, and that the pyramids count as 2, not an auto-win.

Without the 12 card-auto victory, I am hard-pressed to find any use for heroes which give you an extra bonus in deciding who becomes Master Trader or Statesman; let alone why people would want to go through the trouble of acquiring more than 9 different resources or tax cards. The variant that you need 5 hero/monument points, with the Pyramids counting for 2 (but still costing 12 cards), is then more logical.

My group played this recently for the first time and it was a blast. We played with the expansion with 6 newbies and it took just over 3 hours with rules explanation. Did the leader get beat up sometimes? Yes. Did that affect the fun? No.

I don't understand all the fuss about beating down the leader issues in games. People need to learn the finer art of board game diplomacy. Nearly every game has it, whether it's in the rules or not. You should be pointing out others strengths and downplaying your weaknesses. And if your counting wins then youre doing it wrong. Just my 2 cents

On topic, hope your can get this one played we had a great experience and everyone wants to play again. A few of the players wanted to buy a copy but were let down to hear it was OOP and potentially difficult or expensive to acquire. We played the out of the box rules, with the Pyramids removed for our first game (on a suggestion from another BGGer).
