Romans Go Home! is a fun, fast and fighty card game in which the players are Caledonian clans competing to capture the largest and most valuable Roman forts along Hadrian's Wall. Romans Go Home! is the next game in Vainglorious' Celtic Nations Series, and the first game in the series to have humorous artwork. The game is played over three turns. Each turn, a face-up randomized row of six Roman Fort cards is dealt. Each player draws from her own deck of warrior cards, then programs six card plays in advance each turn. The warrior cards each have a battle strength value and a special text effects. Each round, players reveal one of their programmed warrior cards, resolve effects, and see which player has won the fort card for the round. The winning player discards her face-up warrior cards, while the other players retain theirs. Fort cards also have text effects, which are resolved when the fort is won. Players must anticipate their opponent's choices to succeed. 18 fort cards / 36 warrior cards. All cards are 57.5mm x 89mm.
