Warrior Knights
 |
The Kingdom is in chaos. The King lies dead without an heir¸ slain by a villainous hand. Will a leader rise up and rally the support of the people¸ or will the shadow of anarchy spread over the land? Through the deliberation¸ it is plain to see that this conflict will not end without bloodshed. With such power at stake¸ there will be no compromise. Even now¸ each Baron plots to gain advantage and hires hardened mercenaries to strengthen his forces. Soon the crashing of marching boots and the roar of battle will drown out the negotiations taking place at the Assembly. Fortresses will fall¸ cities will be razed¸ and a King will be crowned. In Warrior Knights¸ each player takes on the role of a Baron vying for control of the Kingdom. Each Baron commands four faithful Nobles who lead his armies into battle. Each Baron seeks to capture cities in order to gain Influence¸ which is used to measure his claim to the throne. Barons may also seek to gain advantage by increasing their income¸ gathering Votes to use at the Assembly¸ or by amassing Faith¸ which can be used to gain a measure of control over chance events. Only through cunning strategy and careful diplomacy can a Baron hope to attain victory.
