This strategic two-player game is designed for ages 10 and up, created by Dirk Henna. Players take on the roles of rival houses—one controls the House of York, while the other commands the House of Lancaster. Using power cards, players expand their influence by securing territories, with an emphasis on maintaining contiguous regions for stronger control. Heroic Knights can be deployed to seize enemy territories, introducing tactical depth and unexpected reversals during gameplay. The objective is to outmaneuver the opponent through careful planning and strategic card play.

Online Review Summaries:
Things to Keep in Mind
A common point of feedback suggests the game may have limited long-term replayability, with some players finding it repetitive over time. Additionally, the game's theme is often perceived as thin or pasted on, and a specific concern raised is an insufficient number of movement cards, which can lead to frequent reshuffling during play.
Why You'll Like It
Reviewers frequently highlight this as a well-designed two-player abstract strategy game that is easy to learn yet offers engaging strategic depth. Many also commend its solid component quality and good value for its price.
