==Gameplay== |
|||
There are two decks of cards, the Gauls and the Romans. Some of the deck is flipped up for players to choose from. |
|||
Every player starts with a card and then play proceeds clockwise with players taking a Gaul card and placing it in front of them. Players compete for special Roman cards. The goal is to build sets of diverse colors. The larger a player's sets, the greater their prestige.{{vague|date=August 2017|reason=sounds like either unexplained in-game concept,or ref to real-world gamer sociology; either leaves us with dubious basis for comprehension. |
|||
Play ends when the either of the decks are exhausted. <!-- sounds like a variant of [[Patience (game)]], and mine is exhausted --> |
