Roma II: Arena
From the Publisher...
The revolt in Rome will not end for a long time to come! Join the action and find out who is the most powerful ruler by skillfully playing your cards.
No matter if you strengthen your own position with strong cards like Arena or Ballista or if you augment your victory points with Templarius and Triremis - you will be the winner if you use your characters and buildings with wits. You may also combine “Roma II - Arena” with “Roma” and discover even more options.

Probably my favorite 2 player game. It incorporates skill, luck, and some confrontation. The artwork is very interesting and well done. A game can go anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes. Very easy to set up and learn. Highly recommended! |

My favorite 2 player game right now. Cards have nice artwork. Game is easy to learn and set up and combines luck, skill, and a small bit of confrontation. Playtime ranges from 5 to 40 minutes for us. I highly recommend this game for those looking for a 2 player game. |

Another fantastic 2 player game. Roma II: Arena combines dice rolling with card placement. This is one of those games that "gets dice right." This game is portable, it plays quickly, and delivers a pretty full experience. It offers several choices per turn but never really "bogs down." Another game that's making the trip to Europe with me! Enjoy!
PS. this game is a sequel to Roma but it is NOT an expansion - it is a full game. |

This takes the basic game found in Roma and adds one HUGE factor - the bribery spot. Now you have much more control over your turn because you can always count on using the card you've put in the bribery spot (and a cost). I would never go back to playing without this option.....and it's easy enough to play the original Arena cards with this new set up as well, so buying this expansion (which is also playable by itself) should be a no-brainer. |
