Seers have foreseen the eruption of Vesuvius, and those versed in the mystic arts have intervened to prevent it — which has annoyed Pluto considerably. He now promises far worse unless the earth's strongest champions complete a series of tasks in a realm of gruelling combat. Chip Theory Games build it the way they build everything: poker chips, neoprene mats and dice you could drop down a stormwater drain and most likely recover unharmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombat uses Chip Theory's established Hoplomachus system on a hex grid — quick to resolve, but with real positioning decisions and nowhere to hide behind the dice. Victorum adds heroes and a campaign layer on top, so between fights you are recruiting, upgrading and choosing which route to take next. A run lands at 60 to 90 minutes, which makes it unusually easy to actually get to the table on a weeknight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Victorum is a solo-only game.
