Compete for primacy by recruiting ministers to your cabinet, raising armies, developing military technology and tactics, collecting resources, and battling enemies in a grand strategy game with tactical combat. You cabinet of ministers determines how efficiently you perform actions. Your military strength depends on the number of armies you can muster as well as the military technology and tactics you develop in the form of combat cards. In battle, commit your forces to different objectives including increasing your legend, eliminating enemies, and other objectives depending on the territory you are fighting over. You probably cannot win every objective, so the player who allocates forces most efficiently will get the most out of the battle. In the end, the player with the most victory points wins. Your score each round is determined by the sacred sites you control multiplied by your legend multiplier. —description from the designer
