Mare Nostrum: Empires – Starting Heroes

About this expansion

Mare Nostrum: Empires – Starting Heroes is a 2017 expansion for 3–5 players, with a play time of 120 minutes. It adds six new heroes that can be used in place of the original Starting Heroes.

This expansion provides an alternative set of Starting Heroes for Mare Nostrum: Empires. Rather than using the original heroes, players can use these additional hero tiles as the starting options available in the game.

Each new hero comes with additional rules contained on the back of the tile. This keeps the expansion’s rules directly associated with the heroes it introduces and provides the information needed to use them.

The six heroes included in Mare Nostrum: Empires – Starting Heroes are:

• Alexander
• Brutus
• Gadeirus
• Khufu
• Mago I
• Xerxes

With its six replacement heroes, this expansion adds more Starting Hero options while remaining focused on a single addition to Mare Nostrum: Empires. The compact rules presentation on the reverse of each tile makes the new hero information part of the expansion’s components.

For groups playing with 3–5 players, Mare Nostrum: Empires – Starting Heroes offers a straightforward way to use a different set of heroes at the beginning of the game. It is an expansion centered on alternative Starting Heroes, featuring Alexander, Brutus, Gadeirus, Khufu, Mago I, and Xerxes.
