Via board movement, diplomacy, trading and technological advances, you choose how your culture develops. Each turn, you build cities which allow you to acquire commodity cards. By trading with other players, you make those cards into sets. The larger the set, the greater is its value in currency toward acquiring technology advancements. Each technology provides victory points along with benefits and detriments. For instance, Monarchy allows you to increase your taxes and defeat more Barbarians, but it also worsens the calamity of Tyranny. Ah, calamities. Every turn, your people could be pummeled by disasters such as Epidemic or Civil War or simply by hostile neighbors. To win, you will need to weather those calamities, trade to your advantage and\u00a0make\u00a0wise purchasing decisions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<p class=\"yiv7358798541MsoNormal\"><b>Special Event Rules:<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of Mega Civilization, we will be using Eastern Empires and Western Empires.
