Description

Plenty of interaction between players as each player at various times will have to use some of their opponents forces to try to achieve his or her own nefarious ends and in the process may have to grudgingly grant them some land that is ripe for taxation.

It is 1066 and Duke William of Normandy is about to cross the Channel to invade England. You are one of his most trusted nobles and stand ready to carve out a barony for yourself in England. For the next four hundred years you and your descendants will serve the king - fighting his wars, building his castles, collecting his taxes - and making your family as rich and powerful as you can in the process. But have a care! Other barons plan to do no less for their families. You will only emerge victorious if you can use sufficient guile, cunning and skill to shape some of the most decisive events in this country's history.

Sounds as if it's come straight off the bottom of the box doesn't it? Well it did actually....

This is a game that doesn't try to give you anything but a good time, and you’ll leave the table with a bit more history up your sleeve than when you sat down.

Kings and Castles - a game for two to four players, aged eight to adult.

Game components include cloth map, four counter sheets, four faction cards, cloth bag, rule booklet.
