About Rolling Empires

When the lands of Terris were first discovered, a war was sparked. The Great War ravaged the lands and drove many factions to the brink. Seeing their inevitable doom, the factions reached an alliance. Hundreds of years have passed in peace since The Great War. One day, The Aether Stone fell from the heavens. The Stone carried with it crystals filled with intense magical power. The crash spread these crystals throughout the land, but the majority of the crystals were concentrated at the crash site. Once the factions began collecting the crystals, they realized how powerful they were and what they could do with them. Peace had prevailed, but many sought after the power of the crystals, and power leads to corruption. Eventually, armies began to march on the crash site to hoard it's power. The struggle for conquest had begun. But not all were consumed by the crystals' powers. Some remained content working the land and building glorious cities, filled with monuments and workshops. Which path will you choose to follow? Rolling Empires is a fantasy empire dice building game for 2 - 6 players. Engine building and area control are some of the key features of this game. It features 6 factions, all with several unique creatures in the form of dice that can be recruited to build your engine. Players score points through building and through conquest. There is no one path to victory.
