Accessory Laserox - Merv Organizer

Merv: The Heart of the Silk Road is a tense economic game charting the rise and fall of the greatest city in the world.

In Merv, players are vying to amass power and wealth in the prosperous heart of the Silk Road. Through careful court intrigue, timely donations to the grand mosque, and favorable trade deals, players attempt to redirect as much of that prosperity as possible into their own pockets.

Meanwhile, beyond the city walls Mongol hordes approach. If you help construct the city walls, you give up on precious opportunities to build up your own stature, but leave it unprotected and you will burn with the city. Every decision is weighty and the consequences of each misstep are dire. Will you rise to prominence or fade into oblivion?

Underrated

Not sure why this wasnt a bigger hit. Too euroey?!? Either way, it plays fantastic and deserves to be on the table of any euro enthusiast.

Get it to the table

Fabio Lopiano's games are all so cool. This one might be my favourite. Also features beautiful art by Ian O'Toole.
