Clan chieftains shape Scotland’s rugged isle into the most prosperous kingdom to claim the crown.

Each round, draw tiles, secretly discard one, and price the rest; opponents purchase at your price or you pay to keep them. Place tiles to connect roads and landscapes, earning income and points against rotating scoring tiles that shape tactics each game.
