Product Description "A game of astonishing variety and grace" – IGNThe Imperium series continues in this asymmetric card-based civilisation building game for 1–4 players, charting the rise and fall of fourteen of the greatest civilisations from history.Formidable adversaries are arrayed against you. Your people stand ready. History beckons.In your hands lies the destiny of one of the most storied peoples of history. Under constant threat of attack, you must conquer new lands, oversee dramatic scientific and cultural advances, and lead your people into the era of empire.

Each makes for a unique and challenging opponent in both multiplayer and solo games.Fully compatible with Imperium: Classics and Imperium: Legends for those wanting to expand their pool of civilisations even further, Imperium: Horizons also incorporates a new trade module that allows players to recreate all the intrigue, wealth generation, and dynamic politics of a thriving economy.

Review: …sondern auch neues, bietet der aktuelle Ableger von „Imperium“ mit den Handelsstraßen. Von den 14 neuen Völkern sind 6 davon speziell dafür designed, die anderen haben aber auch einige Karten die darauf Bezug nehmen. Wie die anderen beiden Titel (Classic, Legends) kann auch dieser unabhängig von allen anderen gespielt werden. Das Insert nimmt auch gesleevte Karten auf, wer aber, so wie ich, weitere Inhalte in dieser größeren Schachtel verstauen möchte, muss sich davon trennen. Als Alternative bieten sich diese Card-Boxen an, da passen jeweils 3 Völer rein - perfekt. Für die Solospieler gibt es jetzt für jedes bisherige Volk eigene Handlungskarten, auch sind einige korrigierte Karten für alle Ausgaben enthalten! Auch bei Horizons gilt: Man sollte sich vorher mit dem zu spielenden Volk näher befassen, die Wege zum Sieg sind mannigfaltig!

Pros: The games expands on previous “Imperium” titles, adding 16 new factions and a brand new mechanic; trade routes. After playing with trade routes, it’s hard to go back. The factions are also super clever; a great example is the Martians, who have the ability to “teach” their high-tech cards to other civilizations and feature a fun “take me to your leader” card. It’s just really thematic. Cons: Some factions are so innovative that they’re simply not fun to play. It’s certainly a matter of opinion, and the game comes with 16 factions so you’re guaranteed to find ones you like. I played a game with as the Inuit faction, which features a Summer/Winter state card instead of an Empire/Barbarian. The idea is that you save cards for summer, where you make great progress, and then hunker down in winter with a limited hand of 3 cards. Thematically, it works great; I had a lot of “ohh that’s awesome” moments as I saw the way I was led to interact with the cards. The problem is that my slow deck cycling meant that the game took 3 hours. I will never play the Inuit again simply because of how LONG it took for the game to end. I love the concept though, and I know my opinion won’t be shared by all. Things to Know: This is, in my opinion, a 1-2 player game. Technically can do 3 or 4, but play time increases greatly. The trade routes expansion asks that you remove all attack cards from the game. Personally, I love player interaction and opted to not do this. The game is a 10/10 if you love history; if you don’t, it’s great mechanically but might lose you on the theme. Is this a good starting point compared to Classics/Legends? Yes! There is an extremely diverse blend of low-high complexity factions that allows for a fun experience for all skill levels. I say: start with whichever game has the most interesting and recognizable civilizations to you. The component quality is great! Even better than Classics and Legends.
