Castelli board game

Italy in the Middle Ages. It is of paramount inportace to build castles at attractive locations. But unfortunately other landlords also try to gain power in the country. In this exciting strategy game the players gradually develop their influence and try to collect as many raw materials as possible. With the unusual turning mechanism of the tiles, every player has the power to distribute the raw materials between himself and the other players on each turn. Building of castles then results in victory points depending on the positions of the villages and cities - and that's what it's all about, if you want to become the most successful landlord.<br /><br />The two expansion modules included – "Dilemma" and "Battle" – can be combined freely with the basic game. They increase the challenge and time of play gradually. The game also includes material for a "Castelli tournament" in which four players play in pairs simultaneously.
