Foundations of Rome: Roads of Fortune - Unboxing

David Niecikowski, PhD

David Niecikowski, PhD

Watch “Foundations of Rome: Roads of Fortune - Unboxing,” a board game unboxing for Foundations of Rome: Roads of Fortune on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by David Niecikowski, PhD on YouTube:

Cunning Architects need to be mindful of more than just what’s within the boundaries of Rome, but what lies beyond them as well. The edges of the city, previously considered by your fellow Architects to be the least valuable real estate, are now connected to the outside world. Traveling merchants, diplomats, philosophers, soldiers, and vagabonds approach the gates, eager to exchange their knowledge and services! Control of Rome’s borders means control of untold riches entering the city. In Roads of Fortune, players are rewarded for maintaining majority control over the edges of the play area by unlocking powerful new abilities on a variable set of Road boards. As the capstone expansion to the Foundations of Rome experience, the Roads are compatible with any combination of existing modules, including the Gardens of Ceres solo challenge. Roads of Fortune also features a number of quality life improvements, such as component tray upgrades and new player aids. #roadsoffortune #foundationsofrome #arcanewonders #tileplacement #citybuilding #davidniecikowski #kickstartergames roads of fortune expansion foundations of rome arcane wonders board card miniature game tile placement city building kickstarter david julie niecikowski
