BURNING DESIRES
making room for city improvements
Can you get away with burning down some slums to create room for your new development? You
will be facing panicking mobs, enemy gangs and the most deadly of enemies: Fire!

SETTING THE FOUNDATIONS

blood should be spilled
No proper temple will sit content without a proper fundament: be it (worthy) sacrifices standing
under its cornerstones, or a goodly amount of blood mixed in the mortar.
If you took down opposing gangsters in the previous scenario, you are all set, otherwise this will
become a snatch and grab and a race to get your sacrifices done before their friends decide a rescue.

BUILD PROTECTION
find and expose the infiltrator
With many workers on your building site, there is always a chance someone slipped in to sabotage
the project. Can you find and expose them before they cause critical damage?

SACRIFICIAL GOAT
what should be a simple escort job
The auguries in preparation of the finalization of the temple and the start of the festival require
some livestock, preferably goats and or hares..... Teams have been sent out to collect these, but can
they manage to deliver?

THE FESTIVAL
a simple case of mob control
With the delays (or not) caused in the previous two scenarios there may be problems with the
worshippers come the festival. Can your crew maintain the order until the hunting of the Hares?.

 BURNING DESIRES
“Are you sure that is the most auspicious location?” his finger fixed to the map of the area, pointing at a configuration
of boarding houses and warehouses not too far from the river. It is a place where he knows at least two of his rivals
have an interest.
The augur nods. “The signs of the heavens are clear, Felix Lucas. And not just that, I crossed the Aventine on foot
thrice and each time experienced ex diris near that spot”.
He nods, “Then so be it, I will take steps to ensure it will be built.”
Once the augur has left, he sends out a runner with a note. “I have a job for you.”

SCENARIO REQUIREMENTS
For this scenario, each player creates a Gang of three Fighters,
with a maximum cost including Denarii of 75 coins. No Primus
coins may be taken for this scenario.
The attacking Fighters start the game with Blazing Torch Denarii
shadowing them. These Denarii allow a Fighter to create a Fire
when in contact with a structure or, when faced with an opponent,
to make a Brawl attack (essentially waving the burning bits in the
opponent’s face, making him move away). A Fighter carrying a
torch may not blend with a Mob. At the start of the game, any
attacking player can be equipped with a Blazing Torch instead
a Denarius from his coin bank. Torches can be represented with
spare Denarii, but you might find it more characterful to represent
them with unused pebbles (preferably in red or orange), or even to
model some burning brands for your Fighters.
A 3x3’ table is recommended for this scenario. Representing a part
of the Aventine slums, near the river, with cheap apartments and
run-down workshops, the centre of the table should hold four
buildings with two crossing alleys between them. These are the
targets for the attacker. A second ring of buildings should create
the wider area under risk of burning down.
• Sufficient buildings/structures/obstacles to fill the centre
of the table as shown
• Six mobs
DEPLOYMENT
Attacking Fighters may deploy within 8 Gradus of the centre of
the table. The defending player/players can start one Fighter (each)
inside one of the four target buildings, any other Fighters should
be in bed in the second layer of buildings. Two of the unoccupied
starting buildings will generate Mobs, though no Mobs are placed
on the table at the start of the game.
OBJECTIVES
Attacking Fighters must set fire to each of the four central
buildings and keep defending Fighters (and the Mobs) distracted
long enough for the fire to take hold.
SCENARIO RULES
Under Cover Of Night
The darkness makes Ranged Attacks unpredictable. Range Attack
successes are void if there is a single I in your Dice Pool when the
Ranged Attack is cast.
Burn It Down
Attacking Fighters in base-to-base contact with a structure and
equipped with a ‘blazing torch’ or ‘fire-pot’, may use their activation
to place three fire markers at that location. Each marker is the size
of a normal base and is placed in contact with the structure and
another fire marker. Fire markers can be represent with simple
red-painted bases, or you could make your own with cotton wool
sprayed to look like small fires.
Each turn, before Actions are taken, tally the fire markers in
each conflagration and add half that number (rounded up) to the
blaze, placing them in contact with the structure and each other.
A structure is deemed lost when all doorways are blocked by fire
markers, or when it is completely enshrouded in fire.
;4;
Expanding blaze
Any conflagration that grows over twelve (12+) fire markers may
expand in addition to its ‘normal’ growth. Roll one die:
Dice roll Result
I - III Add that many additional fire markers.
IV - VI Subtract three from the roll, and that number of sparks
fly up to 6 gradus in the direction of the V. If there is a
structure within that distance it will start its own fire.
Any conflagration that grows to 18 fire markers will create a wild
blaze (use a Mob base filled with fire markers!) which will then
move as per the basic rules for Mobs. Should a wild blaze come
into contact with a structure it will start a fire. Should it make
contact with a Fighter, apply the rules for a panicked Mob.
Fire Alarm
If a conflagration reaches 5+ fire markers the people inside the
building are awoken. Determine if it is a (defending) Fighter or a
mob. Place the relevant model outside the dwelling. If it is a Fighter,
add its pebble to the dice bag. If it is a Mob, determine what it will do:
Dice roll Result
I Huh… what? Confused, they stand around
figuring what to do.
II-V The Mob forms a Bucket brigade (see Quenching
Fires) and will move to and fight the nearest fire
VI Flee! Mob move 5 Gradus in the direction of the V.
Stop when confronted with more fire.
Starting on the turn after the Fire Alarm is first raised, once the
Fire actions at the start of the turn are done, roll one dice for each
of the outer buildings. On a I it is the hideout of a defending
Fighter; on a VI it produces a Mob, with its citizens bursting forth
to fight the fires (or stand in rapture of them). At no point will
there be more than 6 Mobs on the table.
Quenching Fires
Fire markers may be quenched and removed by Fighters: a
Combat Action as part of a joint action removes one marker, a full
activation removes three. The bucket brigade will remove two to
five fire markers, depending on its result.
VICTORY CONDITIONS
If the defending players manage to save at least one of the target
buildings from burning down, for the next game the patron’s gang
will count as having a ‘Supply Drain’ PIM against them.
Any attacking players Retired during the game start the next game
as ‘Still Healing’.
Any defending players Retired during the game will start as
captives for Scenario Two.
MULTI-PLAYER GAMES
The game can be played as a multi-player game with three
or four players.
With four players, each of the three defending players has
one Fighter on the table, with a maximum cost of 25 coins.
With three players each of the defending players can field
two Fighters, with a maximum cost of 40 coins. To offset
this, the attacking player can spend 80 coins on his gang.

 Setting the foundations
“Blood should be spilled!” the master-builder huffs and puffs, pacing like a restless hound before the dais. “No
good will come to my crew if we start this build without a proper offering.”
The Dominus nods, sipping wine from his cup “I assume one or two donors can be found… Have your Priest
ready tonight and I will provide.”
After the master-builder leaves he sends out a runner with a note. “Bring up the prisoners.”

SCENARIO REQUIREMENTS
This is a Points Even match. For this scenario, each player creates
a Gang of six Fighters, to a maximum cost including Denarii of
150 coins.
A 3'x3' table is recommended for this scenario, representing a part
of the Aventine slums near the river, an area rotten with cheap
apartments and run-down workshops. The center of the table
should hold a large open area, surrounded with areas of debris.
This is the area where the temple will be raised, where the sacrifices
need to be made, and where Iludicis Diri is wandering around,
awaiting his victims.
• Sufficient buildings/structures/obstacles to populate the
outer parts of the table as shown
• Iludicis Diri, priest of Orcus.
DEPLOYMENT
Defending players deploy first and can be placed anywhere on the
table.
Attacking Fighters deploy 3 teams anywhere on the table edge.
Each team will be at least 1 Fighter bringing on a ‘captive’, and
each team may also be deployed with one or more escorts. Any
remaining Fighters are deployed on the edge of Iludicis Diri’s area.
Iludicis Diri starts in the middle of the board.
OBJECTIVES
The Attacking Fighters must make sure that two sacrifices are
made by Iludicis Diri. This can be the original prisoners being
brought up, or any other Fighter…
SCENARIO RULES
Two or three (player’s choice) of the attacking player’s Fighters are
tasked with bringing up a drugged captive. Each starts the game
with a visible ‘captive’ Denarius shadowing them. These Denarii
represent the victims to be delivered to Diri in the centre of the
table. They can be abandoned, in which case that token is left on
the table. Any Fighter can pick up the ‘captive’, but if they already
have a Denarius shadowing them, it needs to be discarded in order
to haul along the captive. Any of these captive Denarii can be
replaced instead with captive Fighters Retired in the previous
scenario. Remove the ID and Blood tokens from the Fighter’s base
as a reminder that they are not active Fighters.
Under Cover Of Night
The darkness makes Ranged Attacks unpredictable. Range Attack
successes are void if there is a single I in your Dice Pool when the
Ranged Attack is cast.
;7;
ILUDICIS DIRI
An ordained priest of Orcus, this giant, bearded, wild-man
walks the streets of Rome, and woe to him (or her) that has
broken oaths. A single stroke of his builder’s mallet will
smite even the mightiest, and send them to their maker.
Movement
He follows the normal movement rules for Mobs, but will
not move further than 12 gradus from the center of the table.
Hammer Time
Any single Fighter or captive model/token that comes into
base contact with Diri for the first time during the game is
judged and, if found wanting, executed. Roll one die, and a
result of I to III means that the captive is struck down and
removed. Once Diri lets an offering go he will not judge
them again (this game!). For this scenario, the attacking
Fighters have been made known to him beforehand and
are only found wanting on a dice roll of VI.
Taking captives
Any Fighter taken out can be taken captive. In order to do so,
at the start of the next turn the capturing player should play a
‘captive’ Denarius, or remove the ID and blood tokens from the
captive.
VICTORY CONDITIONS
If the defending player manages to prevent one of the two sacrifices
being made then in the next scenario, the patron’s gang will count
as having a ‘Supply Drain’ PIM against them.
If the defending player manages to prevent any sacrifices from
being performed, then two Sabotage actions will be needed in the
next scenario.
If the attacking player manages to obtain two sacrifices, then four
Sabotage actions will be needed in the next scenario.
MULTI-PLAYER GAMES
The game can be set up as a multi-player game for three
or four players.
With four players each of the three defending players has
two Fighters on the table, to a maximum cost of 50 coins.
With three players each of the two defending players can
field three Fighters, to a maximum cost of 75 coins.
 BUILD PROTECTION
“Make sure your team is vigilant,” he addresses the goon in front of him. “We can ill-afford any more delays on
the building site if the Floralia is to proceed as planned!”

Flavius stood up in the back of the cart and looked to the distance “I can see the roof of the temple – we’re almost

the temple building site had been rather uneventful. Sitting in the comfort of the ox-cart had made them drowsy,

SCENARIO REQUIREMENTS
This is a Points Even match. For this scenario, each player needs a
Gang of up to six Fighters, to a maximum cost, including Denarii,
of 150 coins.
The domari has sent a team to collect a sacrifice for the upcoming
festival. They are on their way back to the temple, and an escort is
closing in, but so are the enemy.
A 3'x3' table is recommended for this scenario, representing a part
of the Aventine slums near the river, an area rotten with cheap
apartments and run-down workshops. At one end of the table is
the building site for the temple being erected, surrounded with
scaffolding, carts and building materials. The ox-cart with the goat
and the gangers will enter on the opposite edge. The will need to
cross a crowded market to make their delivery.
DEPLOYMENT
It is market day and a significant crowd is at large. Starting with
the Domari’s Gang, players place 6 to 8 stalls and 4 Mobs inside
the market area, and two Mobs anywhere on the board outside the
area of the market. Three Fighters and a Denarius representing the
goat are placed inside the ox cart, or in contact with it and on the
edge of the table.
The defending player now deploys their Fighters anywhere on the
same table half as the temple building site.
The remaining Fighters of the Domari’s Gang can arrive on any
table edge, but only after first blood is spilled!
OBJECTIVES
The defending player wins if they manage to abduct the goat and
move it off the table.
The attacking player wins if the goat is delivered to the temple (the
goat token is moved onto the central temple floor).
If Hircanus moves off the table on his own accord, neither player
wins.
SCENARIO RULES
I’m Driving In My Cart
The cart normally moves at a speed of 2 gradus per activation and
can be activated once for each of its occupants. It can veer slightly
off a straight line, but no more than a gradus of direct ahead.
The cart can not move into buildings or through Mobs.
The cart can move at breakneck speed, 4 gradus per activation for
each occupant, but only straight ahead. If it hits ANY obstacle
(Building, Rubble, Mob or Fighter) it will crash. This will result in
1 unavoidable wound for each occupant (and for any Fighter hit).
Hircanus will break loose and move 2 dice directly away from the
point of impact.
; 11 ;
Hircanus
The prize goat Hircanus was drugged before being put in the cart
and is dozing. Once prodded into action (taken from the cart), he
should be in base contact with a handler at all times. This prohibits
his handler from actively equipping a Denarius.
If his handler takes any wounds, then Hircanus will break free and
run off. Immediately move him using the rules for a panicking
Mob, then use the regular Mob movement rules to determine any
subsequent movement, until he is captured.
A Fighter moving into base contact can attempt to recapture
Hircanus. To make a capture attempt, roll a die:
Dice roll Result
I-II The goat is captured!
III-IV The goat makes a 3 or 4 gradus move directly
away from his captor.
V-VI Hircanus charges the Fighter and causes ONE
unavoidable wound.
The goat follows the rules of the Fierce Mastiff concerning healing
and Line of Sight.
And the House Came Tumbling Down!
If the defending player managed to sabotage the builders’ last
scenario then he nominates one Fighter as ‘demolition man’.
During this scenario the demolition man can use the ‘House
of Cards’ PIM once for any domestic building, workshop or
warehouse (so no temples, city walls etc.).
Follow the rules as per PIM and in addition place a rubble pile,
half the size of the building’s footprint on all sides of the collapsed
building. Any Mob inside this area when it happens will panic in
the same manner as the normal Mob reaction to a combat.
Rubble is not crossable for the cart.
VICTORY CONDITIONS
If the defending player manages to abduct the goat, the patron’s
gang will count as having a ‘Hidden Assets’ PIM against them for
the last scenario.
If the attacking Gang manages to deliver the goat, the defending
players start next game under the effect of ‘Drunken Night’.
If Hircanus moved off on its own then ALL Fighters start the
next game as per ‘Drunken Night’
MULTI-PLAYER GAMES
The game can be set up as a multi-player game for three
or four players.
With four players each of the three defending players has
two Fighters on the table, maxed at 50 coins.
With three players, each of the two defending players can
field three Fighters, maxed at 75 coins.
 THE FESTIVAL
“I though it better we observe from a distance,” he said to the Senator standing next to him. “The Mob can be a bit
rowdy during Floralia, especially on the last day,” he says gesturing to the crowd milling around the newly-erected
temple below them. “Of course my lads are out in force to make sure nothing untoward will happen.”
He leans over the balustrade, his finger pointing towards a white shape being brought out of the temple “And so
it begins!”

Festival of Flora
Her festival, the Floralia, was held between April 28 and May 3 and symbolized the renewal of the cycle of life, drinking, and
flowers. At the festival, with the men decked in flowers, and the women wearing normally forbidden gay costumes, five days of
farces and mimes were enacted, including nudity when called for, followed by a sixth day of the hunting of goats and hares.

; 12 ;
SCENARIO REQUIREMENTS
This is a Points Even match. For this scenario, each player creates
a Gang of six Fighters, to a maximum cost including Denarii of
150 coins.
This is the final scenario of this campaign and success for the
domari’s team will mean a significant step towards him becoming
a senator. Should anything go wrong, he is bound to end up in
the river! If the goat escaped or was kidnapped in the previous
scenario, by this time he will have been retrieved by whatever
means necessary, or a substitute will have been found.
A 3'x3' table is recommended for this scenario, representing a part
of the Aventine slums near the river, an area rotten with cheap
apartments and run-down workshops. In the middle of the table
shines the newly-erected temple of Flora, centre point for the Floralia.
• Sufficient buildings/structures/obstacles to populate the
outer parts of the table as shown
DEPLOYMENT
The Floralia has been progressing for five days. On this sixth
and final day, revellers from all over the city flock to the temple
to observe or participate in the hunt, while all around, food and
beverage stalls are hawking their wares.
Starting with the domari’s gang, players alternate placing 6 to 8
stalls and 6 Mobs inside the Festival Grounds but no closer than
6 gradus to the temple. The goat is placed at the entrance to the
temple. Players now alternate deploying their Fighters anywhere
on the table, outside the festival grounds. Remember to apply the
victory conditions as per the previous scenario.
OBJECTIVES
The defending player wins if they manage to abduct the goat and
move it off-table and/or collapse the temple.
The attacking player wins if the goat is delivered at the temple (the
goat token is moved into contact with the temple door).
If Hircanus moves off the table of his own accord, neither player wins.
SCENARIO RULES
The hunt is on! The goat will be released and make its way through
the crowds, trying to get away and avoid capture. Capturing and
returning the goat to the temple will mark the end of the Floralia
and end the game. The local Mobs will make (mostly futile)
attempts to capture the animal, so it is up to the domari’s Fighters
to make it happen.
Last Day of the Festival
Mobs are considerably more rowdy after several festival days, this
is reflected below. Brawl collisions are adjusted as follows:
ice roll Result
D
I-III Insulted
IV-VI Roman welcome
Moving the Mob
Roll a die, as per the normal rules; check if the Mob has Line of
Sight on Hircanus.
• If the Mob does not have Line of Sight, they will behave as
normal
• If the Mob has Line of Sight to Hircanus they will
move the distance rolled towards the goat and using the
rules for PANIC! should they run into Fighters.
; 13 ;
Hircanus
The prize goat Hircanus is being released from the temple as prey
for the Hunt, the final event of the Floralia. Hircanus is NOT
amused and will run from buildings and people.
Hircanus will move after all Mobs have moved. He may move as a
result of coming into contact with a Mob. If a Mob makes contact
with Hircanus, he will roll to move as per below (roll 2 dice and
move that distance directly away from the point of contact)
After all Mobs moved he will move as per moving the Mob, using
2 dice to determine direction and distance.
Capturing Hircanus can be attempted by any Fighter moving into
base contact with him. Roll a die:
Dice roll Result
I The goat is captured
II-III The goat make a 2 or 3 gradus move directly away
from his captor
IV-V Hircanus charges the Fighter and does 1
unavoidable wound
VI Hircanus charges the Fighter and does 1
unavoidable wound, then makes a strength 7 brawl
attack, potentially pushing the Fighter away.
Leading the goat prohibits his handler from actively equipping a
Denarius.
If his handler takes any wounds then Hircanus breaks free and
runs off. Immediately move him using the panicking Mob rules.
In subsequent turns he reverts to moving like a Mob as normal.
The goat follows the rules of the Fierce Mastiff concerning healing
and Line of Sight.
And The House Came Tumbling Down.
If the defending player managed to sabotage the builders he can
nominate one Fighter as ‘demolition man’. During this scenario
the demolition man can use the ‘House of Cards’ PIM to try and
collapse the temple of Flora, by spending an activation while
within the Temple. Roll a die; the first attempt will succeed on a
roll of VI, if that fails, you can try a second time in the next turn,
and need a V or VI to succeed.
The collapse of the temple will instantly finish the game as a win
for the defending players!
VICTORY CONDITIONS
As this is the last scenario in the campaign the results are of a
more global kind. Should the domari’s gang succeed then their
master will make a big step towards his ambitions. Should their
opponents manage to thwart the celebrations, either by abducting
Hircanus or by collapsing the temple, then there may be serious
repercussions.
Should the goat manage to escape on its own, who knows when
you might run into him again…
MULTI-PLAYER GAMES
The game can be set up as a multi-player game for three
or four players, allowing for two or three fighters per
defending player (to a maximum of six defending Fighters).
