Boardgaming in 2018!

In my view, it’s got all the strategy of the prior versions, but plays in roughly half the time, so that’s added value in my view. In terms of map size it’s based on 2009’s A Brief History of the World, rather than the 1991 History of the World version. In terms of number of epochs, the 1991 version had 7, the 2009 version had 6, and this version has 5. But 5 is plenty in my view and our game had a lot of back and forth in just 5 rounds.
