<br />
== Story ==<br />
You are brilliant, wealthy, and royal. Most of all, you are ready to prove your brilliance in a high-stakes competition planned by the king himself.<br />
<br />
Birds of prey have been trained and used for centuries in the kingdom of Abbron, and falconry has slowly become a part of everyday life.To celebrate the arrival of falconry in the land, King Alrók has announced a competition for all nobles, with an entire dukedom as the grand prize.<br />
<br />
Nobles must claim enough territory for their birds to fly a straight course of a specified distance.The first noble to do so wins the award.<br />
<br />
Compete with other nobles for dominance, to gain affluence, and to establish your place in Abbron’s history. Use strategy, misdirection, and an occasional ambush to claim new territory, mark a straight path, and win!<br />
<br />
== Goal of the Game ==<br />
Create the first full hunting path by arranging 5 cards in a row (when playing 1 card per turn), or 6 cards in a row (when playing 2 cards per turn).<br />
<br />
The first player or team to mark a straight path of the specified length wins the game!<br />
<br />
== Turn Actions ==<br />
On your turn you either have 1 action or 2, based on the variant.<br />
<br />
For each action, you may either place or move an available card of your color. To place a new card, either take a card from your hand or select a card already on the board, then select where you would like to place it.<br />
<br />
* '''Markers''' are the most basic card type, and may only be placed alone in open spots connected to other cards.<br />
* '''Birds''' can claim other players' markers. These may be placed alone, or on top of a marker card of another color.<br />
* '''Falconers''' are the most powerful cards, and can claim other players' markers or ambush their birds. These may be placed alone, or on top of a marker or bird card of another color.<br />
