Mike decided to have a Roman themed gaming night in order to celebrate the premiere of ABC's Empire. He bought some Italian wines, cheeses, and grapes. Tim brought pizza (but not from Little Caesars).
The first game that we started out was not Roman themed but it was light and quick. I have noticed that people who start out with an early lead suffer in this game and then eventually loose. Fortunately, the dice did not hate me and I was able to win!

Ed suggested this Roman themed game and I jumped at the chance to play. The other table played Rome: Circus Maximus. This is a game of screwing the other players as they race their chariots. If you can time your move correctly and play the right card, you can block everyone else from moving. Or, even worse, force them to take the longer outside track. Unfortunately, I was me who was getting screwed during the game. Sigh... still a fun game.

To finish off the night, we played this game. It is another light dice fest where you control gladiators as they fight to the death. My gladiators did rather well. There were times when they couldn't hit the side of the wall, but one team of three survived until the end. They performed well enough for a second place finish.
