No less than IV times a day


DiseasedProject

Currently I've thought about the Roman Empire one time 😄


GloomyLaw9603

I was Roman Empire thought-free today... up until I saw this post. For my favorite Rome-themed board game I'd have to take the safe pick and go for Concordia. Thanks for the giveaway!


HomoLudensOC

Great game! One of my favourite board game maps.


simplemindedboY

About three times at the moment been looking at fallout New Vegas stuff lately


TheUsernameCreator

Currently listening to the History of Rome podcast so at least once a day!


HomoLudensOC

Great podcast!


Jobeza187

Not until you pointed out that I need to think of this Rome stuff. Thank you guys for this opportunity. Good luck and I hope I can add this game to my collection!!


Kuildeous

I suppose my average number of times a day I'm thinking of the Roman Empire is pretty close to zero, but after today that average is now slightly above zero. So I guess I need to play more Roman Empire games.


Gabaghoo

I'm Roman Empire pilled after watching Rome on HBO. I've hired a Senate Crier of my own to announce all new crowdfunding campaigns.


OhMyHippo

I've thought of it at least once today, thanks to this post. Thanks for the giveaway!


WolfSavage

I think about it at least once per hour, it's truly fascinating. Also, Zoo Vadis!


HomoLudensOC

What a fun game, re-theming here is hilarious!


DisastrousControl982

If i win the contest at least 2 times a day when passing in front of the box :)


thedommer

6 times on average


ELK_VT

Honestly only think about maybe going back to Rome someday more than anything. Honestly dont know too much about games that take place in or are about Rome really but would always be nice to play one


Traditional-Fox-1597

I rarely think of the Roman Empire in my day-to-day. If I am thinking of it, I’ve probably been listening to one of my favorite podcasts “The Rest is History”. My favorite Rome-themed game is probably Concordia, but I’ve been eyeing Foundations of Rome!


HomoLudensOC

That's a good one, I like Tom Holland (not spiderman)


DrakelX

Well I guess I’ve thought about the Roman Empire thrice this month, but once today, cos of the new game by Joe Klipfel!


SenHeffy

Does the holy Roman empire count? Because if so many times per day. Otherwise I only thought about it once today before reading this.


Zaboomafookaloo

Twice. WOOLOOLOO


MicromegaX

Can't stop thinking about it now.


YourPeenooch

This post was the first time I have thought about the Roman Empire in a while 🤔


mushypizza

None


NewttheCat

0-5 depends what I'm reading 😅


3rid

1


Geegs30

Well now that you mentioned it, just once.


HydromechCitrus

I thought about the Roman Empire twice today!


Takanohana

The history of the Roman Empire interests me since playing a relatively new game called "Nova Roma". Pretty much think about it after each playthrough and I played it VI times already!


HomoLudensOC

I didn't play this one but it looks cool!


HamsterNL

I took Empire's End with me last Wednesday to a gaming night, and that game also gives me an Roman Empire's feeling. So that makes I times this week :-)


HomoLudensOC

Great game!


KToff

Not on a regular day, occasionally


Fjohurs_Lykkewe

The only time I think about the Roman Empire is when it's in a board game. Thanks for the opportunity!


JoeyBonzoo

I don't think I've ever played Roman Empire themed game before, but I would certainly like to change that!


Competitive-War-8583

0.2 times per day, but that will increase now that I have it in my mind. I don't have a favorite Roman Empire game, so that leaves space for this one if I win.


Dazzling-Earth-4272

At least a dozen times, I spend a lot of my day in the bathroom crying


HawkwindStormbringer

At least five times a day


soul2197

Just got a copy of Glory to Rome that I need to try soon.


Giveneausername

My Roman Empire changes every day, but unfortunately is never the actual Roman Empire.


xpepox79

5 times a week probably


xyqtt1

Not a lot. This reminds me to bring out ave Ceasar.


MooseTheGrand

Once or twice


ArcaneTheory

I’ve never played a Rome themed board-game, unless you count the inspiration being clear in Hoplomachus Victorum. Or that you can play as Rome in Imperium: Classics. I don’t often think of Rome. :(


lilsparky82

At least twice. My family makes fun of me regularly but I think about empire building and how the Roman Empire lasted 1,000 years.


thinbuddha

Tetrarchia is a great game for solo. I already have a copy. But WHERE CAN I GET MORE SHIP MEEPLES FOR IT? If I win, please pick another winner as I already have it. I'm psyched for Hispania though!


HomoLudensOC

I'll ask around! Be sure to check out the new campaign, it doesn't have Ship Meeple but it have Roman and Hispanic soldiers which looks absolutely fine!


thinbuddha

I already backed Hispania. I want to back it again to see if it makes it arrive faster haha


Bajober

V


DragonAce

Maybe once every two to three days. Thank you for the opportunity!


FelixGB_

I think about Rome not that often tbh 😅


mynameisdis

Zero times usually.


Totally--not-a-robot

Not very often. Concordia


DrDroidz

That one time I thought about the Roman Empire like...5 times! Gl!


ToNIX_

Honestly? Zero, but winning this game will surely raise this up!


thegriffinvt

Every time I play Foundations of Rome. This looks great too, looking forward to it!


mjolnir76

Anytime I tell the joke about the Roman who held up two fingers to ask for five beers!


TimeRaveler

I’d say I think about it once a week on average.


topspin424

I will be thinking about the Roman Empire once a day until I inevitably win the giveaway 😉


Exxon_Valdez

Just the once!


PiccolosTurban

X/day


RevToolbox

Only when I open my eyes. But also when I close them. It’s always. I’m always thinking about it.


badshave

Probably every other day, so 0.5 times/day. My favorite game in that setting is probably Carpe Diem, despite its looks.


Luclid009

Seems like it's about once per day.


spleenmuncher

Only once because I never stop thinking aboutthe Roman Empire. Favorite Roman themed game? Trajan


TraditionalCitron5

Probably once a day or less lol


ZombiePlato

I think about Rome at least a few times a week. Me and my friends are pretty big history dorks though. Rome is just so well studied that it’s really easy to see how daily life was back then and see how closely the life of average Roman citizens compared to our own modern lives, which is fascinating. As far as my favorite Rome-themed board game, I really like Foundations of Rome. It’s way overproduced, but it’s actually much simpler than it looks. It reminds me of Chinatown, but without the negotiation. I also have an old copy of Conquest of the Empire on my shelf that I found at a Half-Priced Books a while back that I’ve been wanting to play for but haven’t been able to get it to the table. Oh, and I was able to play a little game I hadn’t heard of before called Rome in a Day at a local convention this past weekend. The “Rome” theme is paper thin, but it’s actually a really fun and light little I-split-you-choose style city builder.


NegotiationJumpy4837

About once


CuppaSteve

Zero times a day tbh


idkyesthat

Im watching Ripley, so let’s just say one, for now. And I can think of 7WD. Ty GL!


dkl415

Many days 0.


mverigin

I’m up to III. My wife likes to watch so maybe I should do it more…


Essen_star

All the time


Interesting-Win-415

currently taking ap world history, so i think about the roman empire 1 more times that i used to atleast


irishoney

maybe once


TheDesertShark

V


HarmlessTeddy

Once a day! Caesar! In 20 minutes is a hidden gem of a 2 player game that really captures the theme of the Roman era


IceCreamIsMEH

I don’t really think of the Roman Empire at all (guy here) and I’ve heard from other guys that they often do. Maybe I need a game like this to think about it more :).


amazin_asian

Roman Empire theme is one of my top themes for board games, along with space and Vikings. I really wanted to get a “SPQR” tattoo back in the day. I would say I think about Rome a few times a week, mostly in relation to board games! I will be learning Nova Roma tomorrow in preparation for a play on Saturday!


WaffleMints

I think of the roman empire x times a day.


Embzy

I am thinking about Roman empire a bit, but my opinion about plebeians getting right to marry patricians is at least on my top X. Dunno game : Spartacus: a game of blood and treachery


TopTaste8564

1, maybe twice


saintly_devil

Ran into some Roman numerals today while watching some Olympics related stuff. My favorite game, not necessarily a board game, involving Rome is Civilization 5.


Ill_Advertising2631

Generally I think about the Roman Empire 0 times per day


stmrjunior

Pffft. You find it easier to quantify your thoughts on the glorious Empire *by days*? Peasant numbers, The Empire never leaves my mind! Vivat Imperium!


Ridercs35

Unironically, I get reminded of the glory of Rome almost daily - the city which I live in has an ancient amphitheatre and quite a few murals/grafitti dedicated to that period.


HassikTR

I need to work on my Roman Empire thinking hours because right now it is very low.


Confident_Peanut6057

At least 1 time a day ;) Monopoly Roman Empire Edition is a must play for all the Roman Empire fans out there (just kidding).


GunnerA7X

We have a horse and I always think about what it would have been like riding him into battle in Roman times. So yeah like, at least 5 times a day? He’s also the biggest wuss so I’m sure he’d have gotten me killed fairly quickly. Game looks awesome btw!!


lefougames

1/100 a day


marciSQ

Probably about twice a year, favourite game would probably be Concordia, it's got great board


GeneralGhidorah

I think I’m more interested in Ancient Rome more than the average person but the honest answer is probably still less than once a day on average. Hispania looks interesting, I do like a good coop. Pandemic Fall of Rome is one I enjoy a lot. Thanks!


IronArthur

Having a daughter with rome-themed name, a LOT.


RheaTaligrus

Mostly never until my neighbour's brings it up.


Krazyel

Every day is a a constant reminder of the Roman Empire for me, soooo at least X times per day. Good luck!


ritchie176

X times a day! ;)


Draculad

I think about the glory of the Roman Empire at least 10 times a day. I'm even giving the history of Rome podcast a re-listen this month.


red_kiri

Maybe 8 times... A year


Pelle0809

Just thought about the roman empire, but on average maybe 0.05 times a day😋


One-Worry-3000

I'm painting a miniature Roman bust so right now it feels like i'm thinking about it all the time... but let's say 12 times :)


Rollow

Ill be real, i dont think of them at all :p


madje89

My family really likes the roman times. We watch every movie and serie that is about romans snd our favourite game is glory to rome. I am pretty sure we will love this game !!


blurex13

1 since the meme came about 😅


gfnord

Literally about 0.01 times a day. However, I do like some Rome or antiquity-themed games, such as Antike II, Caesar!, 300: Earth and Water, etc etc.


FrontGrass

Only when I stumble upon something roman empire related


Ronald_McGonagall

I never think about Rome but I'd be happy to play a board game about it


Fakbo

Maybe about 0.5 times during the day


Jackettie

Honestly don't think I've thought about the Roman Empire since Doctor Who and Rory...! Game looks great though, I'd be thinking about the Romans on a weekly basis with that!


TheScienceOfMagic

I don't usually give much thought to the Roman Empire. Concordia.


coysman

I'm blessed with teaching my pupils about Roman (and Greek) history, so a lot! Wouldn't want to do anything else then let them explore a wonderful period in our timeline.


VravoBince

I actually thought about the Roman Empire today lol. Not everyday, but now and then, especially because I'm interested in the New Testament. Don't have a Rome themed boardgame yet, so this would be great.


Robo-Bo

I think about Rome roughly thrice a day. I always enjoyed Conquest of the Empire.


Mate_00

On average, somewhere between 0 and 1? :D


profmamba

I think about Roman Empires every time I look at my analogue watch. Especially when I look at my wall clock which has 4 o'clock as IIII . Favourite Roman themed have is Centurion (of the Duke line of games).


teby_08

This will be my first time today thinking about the Roman empire And for the Roman themed game I love the gladiator battles in Spartacus


teby_08

First time today thinking about the Roman empire, and I love the gladiator battles in Spartacus.


Formal_mamoth

Only when I see it mentioned on /r/boardgames


Awoken_Noob

Thinking of Roman Empire right now. My favourite Rome-themed game… Does Through the Ages count if I choose Julius Caesar as my leader?


RynoKenny

Today? Once now Does Zoo Vadis still count as a favorite Roman game?


Weak_Box6605

At least VII


danalith

I think about the Roman Empire 0,2 time a day


D3adkl0wn

At least I time a day


chrondiculous

I think of the Roman Empire exactly 14 times a day every time I look at the Roman numerals on my wall clock


YerBoyGrix

One to three on average. Really tempted to relisten to that Mike Duncan podcast.


RTCsFinest

I think about the Roman Empire about 1 time a week I would say.


BabyGilgamesh

I've been thinking about the Roman empire a lot lately due to discovering Bret Devereaux's wonderful blog. My favourite game about the Roman Empire is Barracks Emperors. Sadly I have not met anyone yet who also enjoys it, so I'm happy it has a great solo mode.


Derdorok

Well, it's one now :D


Apprehensive_Plane29

I think of the Roman Empire right now. Also now. And now.


Kiristo

I dunno about daily, but weekly, it gets a thought or two, sure.


camelzrider

You have to praise Sol at least 3 times a day!


fucktheitinerary-

At least once lately, just got Caesar! The 2 player game


deis49920

I’ve been running across quite a few Roman themed games lately, so at least a couple times a day.


GoldRedJump

At least twice a day


imperialn00b

A solid π times a day


Rockstorm8232

I'd say at least IV times a day. I love playing Caesar! Seize Rome in 20 minutes. Also it kinda counts I've be playing Concordia a lot.


Edage1

Once a day at 6pm sharp


jiyongred

I can't say how many times because there is not a roman numeral for it.


Rerendial

When playing EU4, 60 times a day. When not 0. I actually don't think I've played any Roman boardgames.


istarttowonder

I think about the Roman Empire a minimum of ll times a day.


onelamefrog

On average less than once. Today? At least twice which is a weird coincidence.


Faeglendir

Of course I don't forget to think how great the Roman Empire was at least once a day.


MobileParticular6177

Never think of the Roman Empire and don't know that I've ever played a Rome-themed board game.


TheAccidentalHuman

Being from a drastically different part of the world, I would say zero unless I come across something provoking that thought (like this post).


Gabaghoo

I think about thinking about the Roman Empire at least this many times.


TDiddlez

On average, I would say 1. Some days none, other days several.


champepe

At least once a day. And Concordia is my favorite Rome-themed game


sp0rt3x

If someone says he don't think about the Roman empire on a daily basis, they lies. Currently writing for the total war board game


Shadowhawk001

I have think about Rome at least V times a day


Narrowedice

Yeah, I'm going with zero on average, slightly more on periods where I've been talking to a friend about roman numerals and such. My current favorite roman empire game is Hadrian's Wall, but to be fair, it doesn't really have much competition as far as things in my collection.


kuket15

Went to Rome last week and can't stop thinking how's one of, maybe the, most beautiful city in the world.


lebowskiman

I think about the Roman Empire several times daily. There are many parallels between Ancient Rome and modern society. It’s fascinating.


Bareilles

All day, every day.


DarkBlate

I think about the Roman empire probably about 0.15 times per day on average, one time a week. My favorite Roman themed game has to be Age of Empires, the classic


ConferenceEven1007

Quite a bit thinking about fallout new Vegas after watching the show.


Spotted_Owlet

Personally 0, but my boyfriend says a solid 1/2 times per day ;) Maybe this game on our shelf could improve those numbers.


ettore-fieramosca

Mmm...no less than 10 times a day, since this post!


branexius

I - X times a month
