Rules

Setup

At the start of the game, the players choose their colour and select from the deck the five cards that are of their colour. The Castle card is put into play on the Middle Zone, and the other four start off in the hand. Both players then draw five cards (Red first) and play begins (Red first).

Castle

Each player or team has one Castle card to start off with, and must defend it. It has 50HP (as shown on the corner). When either team's Castle is destroyed they lose the game.

Zones

The board is split into six zones - three on each side: the Castle Zone (inside the Castle), the Middle Zone and the Front. Most Soldiers and Civilians may only perform their actions on targets that are on the same zone as them. You may not enter the Castle Zone of your opponent. The outer walls of the Castle are in the Middle Zone (ironically) so you may move Soldiers into the Middle Zone and attack the Castle. Soldiers and Civilians may move to any adjacent zone on your turn.

Units

"Unit" is used to mean Soldiers, Civilians and special units.

You may play any number of Soldiers and/or Civilians each turn. When you play a unit, it goes to either your Castle Zone or your Middle Zone. You may want to play soldiers to your Middle Zone and your Civilians to your Castle Zone.

Every unit or building card has a number, which is their HP value. When a card's HP falls to 0 it is discarded.

Civilians can repair the Castle and perform other feats.

Soldiers can attack and deal damage to opponent Soldiers or Buildings.

Buildings

Buildings do something as long as they are in play. Buildings can only be played if a Builder is in play, and can only be played into the zone the Builder is in.

Special Units

The General, Spy, Assassin and Wizard are special leaders in the game. They are far more powerful than the ordinary Soldiers.

Spells and Tactics

Spells and Tactics are both Actions. Spells may only be played if your Wizard is in play, and Tactics may only be played if your General is in play.
