From Introduction: In Factions of the Citadel - The Second Age, each player plays as a whole team of combatants in Victorian Europe. They've each been hired by a different wealthy royal family in order to take over vital areas of a giant city-fortress. This setting is made to be played without a GM at all, and is suited for quick, tournament style play. The goal is simple - each player must eradicate all other players' teams and secure the area for themselves!
