color. Each of the rivals has a family

automatically destroys its owner and
all his lands are enough. At the start of the game
Part of the territory of England is not occupied by anyone.
For each round you can make one move:
conquer the land, attack the enemy, hire additional
additional troops, arrange a knightly
tournament, raid the enemy's

For all these actions there is a special

  At one time I played magic's version
this DEFENDER OF TNE CROWN, where very often
offered to marry the beautiful prince-
behold and annex her lands to yours. In ver-
ssi presented in the magazine of this lafa I
I didn’t get it, although during the test the game
I walked through it about twenty times. And vice versa
the mouth was missing in the magic version
some significant points that
are present in full. Yes, sometimes to you
three German knights can join,
returned from the war. To the enemies, as I approached
ripe, knights also join, but in
different quantity. It also happens that you
shi vassals rebel and break your best
catapult All this complicates the game, and
in addition to this, sometimes some kind of sub-
ly Norman Lord kidnaps half of your
our gold.                              
 When you want to attack the lands
another Lord, recruit more warriors and
forward. Some Lords may give you
pass through your territory (ACCEPT).
