Renaissance princes scheme for wealth and prestige by buying influence in Italy’s great cities and manipulating wars between them.

Gameplay

Bid influence to hire yourself as a city’s condottiere, roll to resolve battles, collect pay, and spend gold to buy city tiles and treachery. The tension is reading rivals and timing betrayals so wars and auctions break your way before the final scoring.
