Gameplay includes scouting out unknown territories, conquering them, building castles to prevent revolts and line defenses, raising an army, feeding and paying them, and eventually making a claim for the title of King.

At a rating of 5, two tasks can be performed at once. The more a type of task is performed, the more points which may be devoted to that kind of task are gained (to a limit of 9 per type). Players can only gather the resources in territories they control, so a player who does not control at least one of each kind must rely on trades to gain those resources.Īt first the player can perform one task each of three types at once: administrative (gathering resources and building castles, represented by a green bar), military (recruiting an army, building optional weapons like a catapult, and policing the realm, represented in red), and political (sending scouts, diplomats, and spies, represented in blue).

Having more of one kind of resource territory increases the total amount that the player can harvest per turn (also dependent on the total amount of 'points' allocated).
