New Edition Of Epic History Of The World Board Game Lands This Year
February 20, 2018 by brennon
Z-Man Games will be bringing an epic new version of History Of The World to the tabletop this year in an update to the classic game of conquest, cunning and civilisation.
Here's a lowdown on what the game's about...
"Take a ride through humankind's history with History of the World, a game of conquest and cunning for three to six players. Expand your empire as you command mighty empires at the height of their power from the dawn of civilization to the twentieth century. Each game offers an epic experience as great minds work toward technological advances, ambitious leaders inspire their citizens, and unpredictable calamities occur while empires rise and fall.
This remastered edition of History of the World contains a beautifully illustrated board, revised rules to streamline the experience, and everything you need to etch your name in the annals of history."
Whilst personally I'm moving away from long board games I do like a good empire-builder or 4X when the mood arises. This does seem like a nice alternative to the likes of Civilisation or Through The Ages, although whether or not it will deliver quite the same expansive experience as Through The Ages would be quite the feat.
Are you going to be taking a look at this when it arrives?

@brennon is Through the Ages your 4x game of choice, then?
Love this game, never owned the original so definitely on the shopping list. Not a standard 4x and you have a different empire each age, with points from current and legacy empires.
