Marble
For every marble city a nation owns, it receives
marble units from the bank. It receives:
• 1 marble unit per marble city without temple
• 3 marble units per marble city with temple.
Example:
A nation owns three marble cities, one of them
with a temple. It receives from the bank 1 + 1(for
two cities without temple) + 3 (for one city with
temple) = total 5 marble units.
Iron
For each iron city a nation owns, it receives iron
units from the bank. It receives:
• 1 iron unit per iron city without temple
• 3 iron units per iron city with temple
Gold
For each gold city a nation owns,it receives gold
units from the bank. It receives:
• 1 gold unit per gold city without temple
• 3 gold units per gold city with temple
The production of marble, iron and gold can be
increased by obtaining the know-hows Market
(+1) and Currency (+2).
Temple
A nation may build one or more new temples. For
each new temple, it pays the bank five marble
units, and places the temple on the game board
beside the city.
The temple triples the city‘s ability to produce,
arm and defend itself. Reason for this achieve-
ment is the temple‘s producing a marked increase
in public contentment and productivity.
Only one temple can be built per city. If all 20
temples are already on the game board, no
further temples can be built until destroyed temp-
les can return to play.
Arming
A nation can set up additional military units (legi-
ons or galleys). For each new military unit, it pays
the bank one iron unit, then sets up the unit in a
province where the nation already owns a city.
Each new military unit set-up is limited to:
• 1 unit in province where the nation owns a city
without a temple
• 3 units in a province where the nation owns a
city with a temple
The above limits apply only to new units set
up per turn. There is no limit to the number of
military units either owned by the province‘s
nation or foreign, that can stand in a province
at any one time. The presence of foreign units
does not prevent setting up new units.
Only galleys can be set up in provinces with only
blue sea borders; only legions can be set up in
provinces with only red land borders.
Game tip:
To avoid confusion when a nation with many
military units is adding others, the new ones
should be tipped on their side until the turn is
over. Then they are tipped upright.
