Published by GMT Games and designed by the talented duo Wray Ferrell and Brad Johnson, 'The Barracks Emperors' is more than just your average card game. It’s a historical adventure where 1-4 players vie for control over the Roman Empire, manipulating influence and power to claim the imperial throne. In this game, every card and move counts, with a fascinating array of historical emperors, co-emperors, and pretenders to manipulate.

You'll recognize elements from the beloved 'Time of Crisis' series, now reinvented in a fresh, standalone experience. With an innovative card drafting mechanic, this game elevates strategy and mitigates luck, ensuring every play is as thrilling as it is cunning.
