Theme: The year is 1560, the year a prophecy claims one ruler will defeat all others and forever hold the throne. Do you have the mastery to build your army, defeat your foes, and prove that you are destined to be the Ultimate Ruler? Choose your actions wisely as your fate, and that of the throne, is on the line. --- Play: All players start with an equal quantity of soldiers. On each turn players draw one Decree card and either play or discard one Decree Card (to draw another). Some cards played modify these actions, allowing additional draws or plays. Other Decree cards allow players to Bribe, Recruit and cause Battle between their, their opponent, and the Neutral Soldiers. Cards change in power as the game progresses, so make your choices wisely. Strategy Hand-management is key for success in this game. A great game for on-the-go fun with rapid, card-only play that's easy to learn but hard to master. Strategy evolves as the game progresses and power shifts between you, your enemies, and neutral. —description from the designer
