Barony: Royal Edition

In Barony, players are ambitious barons trying to extend their dominion over the land! Who will succeed and become the new ruler? Gameplay is simple. On your turn, perform one of six actions to expand your territory and diminish your opponents': Recruitment: Add two knights to a city, or three knights if the city is adjacent to a lake. Movement: Move one or two of your knights one space each. If you move a second knight into a space with an opposing pawn or village, remove those tokens and take one resource from the village owner. Construction: Remove one or more of your knights from the game board and replace each with a village or stronghold, gaining one resource. New City: Replace one of your villages with a city and earn 10 victory points (VPs). Expedition: Remove two knights from your reserve, placing one back in the box out of play and the other on any empty space on the edge of the game board. Noble Title: Discard at least 15 resource points, then upgrade your title: baron to viscount, then count, marquis, and finally duke. Once any player has gained the title of duke, finish the round, then tally the VPs, with players scoring for resources still in their possession, their rank in the game, and the number of cities they built. Whoever has the most VPs wins! This new edition of Barony includes the Barony: Sorcery expansion and all-new asymmetric player powers. —description from the publisher
