Caesar & Cleopatra

Two rival leaders vie for control of Roman officials by placing numbered agent cards and playing action cards. On a turn, a player sends agents (1–5) to one of six official groups, choosing to commit cards face-up or face-down, and may play actions such as assassins or scouts to remove or reveal opposing agents. After each turn a voting card is revealed and the indicated official group votes; the player with the most influence there claims an official and then removes their strongest agent from that group. Players draw from either the agent deck or the action deck until one deck is exhausted. The game ends when all officials have been claimed; scoring awards the player who controls the most officials, with bonuses for group majorities and hidden objectives.
