Pillars
A new map each time
Six types of terrain, five civilisations, four ages, three ways to win. Every map, session and rival plays differently.
Roads are permanent
Your roads are a critical part of the game. Build wisely, a road carries your rivals exactly as well as it carries you.
Control is temporary
Play tall or wide, but be present or fall behind. Exert pressure and influence over the world. Your rivals will fight back.
