Special Rules
Imperial Legions rule is in effect for Romans.

Wagon Laager rule is in effect for the Barbarians.

A Roman unit that occupies an enemy camp hex at the start of the Roman player's turn, may remove  the camp hex and gain 1 Victory Banners that cannot be lost. Remove the camp hex before playing a Command card.

(Optional rule) At the beginning of each player's turn , roll 2 dices. If the results are same on both dices (eg. two green, two flags, etc.) the sunset progresses.  Put a block (eg. a special block) on board edge. When 3 blocks are on the edge of the board and no player  has won yet, the game stops immediately in a draw (historical result).

In our tournament, the players played 10 games with the optional rule. In five games, sunset came before the end of the battle. It happened twice when the score was 0:0.

Played this twice, Romans won both times. Once being ultra aggressive with the center and the second time being patient while working the flanks.
