Serenissima is the new Ystari edition of the 1996 game (Méditerranée
in France). The rules have been updated and the game is more fluid.
In Serenissima players represent a merchant family during the
Renaissance. Players attempt to balance the need of trading and open
commerce versus the cut-throat economic piracy of the day. Players
create a fleet of ships to purchase and move various commodities around
the Mediterranean while also keeping well manned ships to attack and
defend against other player's fleets.
