Concordia: Aegyptus / Creta

About this expansion

Concordia: Aegyptus / Creta is an expansion for Concordia for 2–5 players, with an approximate play time of 90 minutes. It includes two maps designed to introduce fresh strategic challenges to the Concordia system.

In Aegyptus, the Nile and its yearly flood provide some extra food. The map also allows players to trade frankincense or gold for sestertii and victory points at the end of the game, creating distinctive opportunities during play.

Creta presents a tighter challenge. Its map contains only twenty cities across nine provinces, including one province with just a single city. The compact layout encourages highly competitive play, especially with four and five players.

• Aegyptus: A map featuring the Nile, yearly floods, and trade in frankincense or gold.
• Creta: A compact map with twenty cities in nine provinces.
• Player count: Both maps can be played with all supported player counts from 2 to 5.
• Card display: A two-sided personality card display is separated from the map and includes a side with different additional costs.

Both maps use a new format that is a little longer than previously released maps while remaining clearly smaller. Their close layouts make them particularly competitive at higher player counts, with four players and especially five players creating intense contests for space and opportunity.

Whether you want the Nile’s extra food and specialized trade possibilities or Creta’s confined network of cities, Concordia: Aegyptus / Creta expands the base game with two focused settings and new ways to approach each session.
