Si tiene producción pero lo mejor, a mi entender, es la creacción y modificación de las unidades a tu antojo. Tiene algo de cartas como opcional pero no lo he usado
Mirad el mod que se han currado para la época romana

Human vs. human games gives the best idea how to balance 
the game. 
Have fun!

************************************************** 
The Roman Empire v1.3 
Unit icons: Thanks to (MatrixGames nick) BULLDOGINTHEUK 
This game simulates ancient era of the Roman Empire. 
Limited number of Roman Legions will fight against 
Barbarian hordes. There are some unhistorical elements 
in this scenario, to make the game more fun. For example 
Hannibal never met Julius Caesar or Attila the Hun never 
invaded the Europe at the time, when the Roman Empire 
took first steps in world domination. Now all this can happen! 
The Game includes: 
- 2 Factions, Rome and Barbarians (AI Hun is optional) 
- 14 Action Cards 
- 49 Different units (including upgrades and named heroes) 
- New graphics and icons for all units 
- 44 Events 
- 8 Researchs 
NOTE: The game is meant to be played: Human vs.Human 
or Roman player vs. Barbarian AI. Roman AI isn't coded 
(Action cards won't work)! Sea antisupply + counter 
artillery is in use. 
- Unit stacking limit at battle is 400 
- Transfer action point limit is 200 
Regimes: 
There are 13 different regimes, which will affect the game 
along with the Rome and Barbarians (Germania). These 
are: Britannia, Gallia, Hispania, Mauritania, Carthage/ 
Numidia, Egypt, Macedonia/Creece, Dalmatia, Dacia, 
Sarmatia, Thracia, Raetia and Bandits. Some of them can 
be invited to Barbarian faction, by using action cards. 
Others may join in action, if opponent fails to maintain 
garrison. All regimes will join the fight, if any side declares 
a war against them. Bandits are AI controlled (optional) 
regime, which will randomly popup in the map. 
Special regime activations: 
Dacia will join Barbarians if the Rome takes (40,19) Scupi 
Thracia will join Barbarians if the Rome takes (42,29) Sparta 
Sarmatian will join Barbarians if the Rome takes (36,3) Vandals Tribe 
Mauretania will join Barbarians if the Rome takes (6,23) Corduba 
Roman Faction: 
- Can have special people Praetorians with +20 fight ability 
by action card. 
- More advanced research available 
- Can build Roman Fort Village with 1000 production points 
- Limited number of HQ and Unit counters (only available 
by action card) 
- Have to maintain garrison against Dalmatia, Macedonia/ 
Creece and Carthage/Numidia. If the Rome fails on this, 
they will join in the Barbarian Faction. 
- The Rome needs 50 victory points to win the game. 
(Every city in a map is worth 1 VP) 
- 3 Named leaders 
Barbarian Faction: 
- Can have special people Sparta with +20 fight ability 
- Ability to build unlimited number of HQ:s and unit 
containers. 
- Can recruit 4 sleeping regime in faction (Britannia, Gallia, 
Hispania or Mauritania). 
- Have to maintain garrison against Sarmatia. If 
Barbarians fails on this, Sarmatian will join the Rome. 
- Barbarians will win the game by owning 50 VP or by 
conquering The Rome city. 
- 4 Named leaders 
Forts: 
Fortification: 1000 structure, costs 3PP and 200 EP/supply 
Fortress: 2000 structure, costs 6PP and 500 EP/supply 
Roman Fortification: 1500 structure, costs 3PP and 250 EP/supply 
Roman Fortress: 2500 structure, 1000 production points, is 
a port, costs 20PP and 500 EP/supply. Can build only supply, 
heavy weapons and ships at fortress. 
Political points: 
- Every owned city on a map will grant 1 political point for 
faction. NOTE You can have only 50% more PP income 
from victory points that opponent has. 
A player can produce PP, but they are very expensive 
and should be made only in emergency situation. 
Weather: 
- Winter impacts the northern part of the map during 
December through February. There is a chance that 
winter will also impact November and March turns. In the 
winter zone, units have a readiness penalty. 
Units: 
- Legionaires and Praetorians use 2 manpower points. 
Historically only landowners were allowed to be a 
Legionaire. All other units use 1 manpower. 
- Special units: Chariots and Elephants can be made only 
in Africa 
- Hoplite units: can only be made in Sparta 
- Praetorian units can only be made in 'Imperial Barracks' 
- Legionaire units can only be made in Roman people cities 
Houserules: 
Because of limitations of current engine (v1.20). Roman 
player should not sell any HQ or unit container. If they do 
this, Barbarians will win the game (event). 
Hun Invasion: 
Only experienced players should choose this option. It is 
really hard to deal with. Hun regime will fall in sleep, if 
both factions play tribute cards. Tribute cards come 
available after Huns conquered enough VP locations. 
It is not possible to collect 50VP after this! >;-) 
Game hints & tips 
- Legionaires and Praetorians use 2 manpower. Roman 
player should backup every Legion Cohort with Auxilia, 
to soak up damage. 
- Manpower and unit containers are really rare to the 
Romans. They should avoid high casualties and total loss 
of units at all cost. 
- The best way for Barbarians is to surround and kill 
Romans for last man! 
- Barbarians should try to hurt Roman garrison areas, so 
more 'barbarians' dare to join them.
