Meld takes place in ancient Macedonia, with one player representing the invading Goth culture from the north, while the other player represents the entrenched Macedonia culture. Both players look to expand their holdings, spread their culture, and strengthen their military forces. Meld is an abstract game that mixes in an economic/resource managment element. The game features a modular board, so no two game boards are every quite the same. Couple that with variable win conditions, and you have the makings for a unique experience each time Meld gets to the table. This is the first Edition of Meld, and is presented in a portable Small Box Games' box, and each of the 25 available copies are signed and numbered. http://www.smallboxgames.com/meld.html
