This a hidden move programming game, similar to RoboRally.
== Theme ==


The goal is to gather all kinds of fighter classes on "recruiting" cities (grey background disk) and defeat monsters threatening the towns (white background disk).  To defeat a monster you need to have all classes of fighters shown at the bottom of the disk.
* This a hidden movement and programming game.


When a round (year) starts, each player programs his move board with either :
== Goal ==
- a colour of path to follow
- a white and green symbol to action at the location
- a yellow x to wait at the location


They then submit their choices.

When all players have submitted their orders for the round (year), then beginning with the start player and proceeding clockwise, each player in turn executes their first programmed order.

Each player then carries out the remaining five orders, again beginning with the start player, followed by the player on their left and so on until the last player has played their sixth order.

* a white and green symbol to perform an action at the location
* a yellow x to wait at the location


At the end of the round (year) the start player token moves one to the left.

*# Wealth (gold tokens)
*# Reputation (placing bard tokens in neighbouring areas) or

There are now three assessments carried out to determine the winner of the game.

** ''Two players are eliminated in a 5-player game''


For the first assessment, the person with the least is eliminated from contention (two players are eliminated in a 5-player game).
==== Second & Third assessments ====


For the second and third assessments, the person with the least is eliminated from contention, meaning only one player will remain at the end of the third assessment and they have won the game.
* The person with the least is eliminated from contention, meaning only one player will remain at the end of the third assessment and they have won the game.
