Description: SPI, 1980, Bookcase Edition. Empires of the Middle Ages- Medieval Europe, 771 - 1467, another great game design by James F. Dunnigan. Between the glories of Rome and the rise of national states stood an age in which each land was defined by the virtues and failings of its monarch. This is a multi-player game of diplomacy in which up to six players may act as dynasts and attempt to build their historic kingdoms into vast empires. Played on a map of Medieval Europe on which players record the power of their kingdoms. Playing cards resolve the basic actions of the game, while Random Events cards add the flavor --plague, crusades, heresy -- of the period. Great game with Case numbered rules that make it easy to look up rules during play when you are in doubt. Great game!Features and contents: Six scenarios, from a Solitaire game to the Grand Scenario covering the entire Middle Ages22-page Rules booklet with historical commentaries for the six scenarios, and for a more realistic game it includes Optional Rules for some of the scenarios: The Schism and the Crusades, Raiders and Magnates, Colonization, Victory Conditions, Charlemagne and the Frankish Empire, Millenium (976-1075 A.D.), Age of the Crusades (1136-1200 A.D.), Defeat in the East (1201-1300 A.D.), and Twilight of the Middle Ages (1386-1465 A.D.).
