ATTILA
Europe is in chaos as Attila and his mounted Huns traverse the land, leaving destruction in their wake. The Germanic tribes, desperate to escape the Hunnic onslaught, have flooded into the outer provinces, where the last remnants of the Roman Empire struggle to survive. In this game, I take on the role of an influential figure within these tribes, guiding them towards victory. Only by exerting my influence wisely can I hope to emerge victorious.
GAME SETUP
To set up the game, I need to arrange the four boards side by side to create the play area. It’s important to ensure that the boards are aligned horizontally, not diagonally. For beginners, it’s recommended to play on a 4×5 play area until they become familiar with the game. After gaining experience, players can choose to orient the board in any way they prefer.
When we play the game, the youngest player takes the first turn. From there, each player picks a spot on the board and puts their Knight there. Once every player has placed their Knights, we can start playing the game.
How to Play
When it’s your turn, there are two things you need to do, and they have to be done in the right order. First, you move one of your Knights. Then, you put a Scored Earth Tile on an empty space on the board.
When you move your Knight, there’s a specific way you can do it. You have to move in an L shape. That means you can go two spaces forward and one space sideways, or you can go one space forward and two spaces sideways. You can go through any spaces, but you have to end up on an empty space.
When playing the game, there may be times when the Knights need to temporarily leave the board. However, they must always return to the board by the end of their move. If a player is unable to move any of their Knights, they will be eliminated from the game and lose instantly.
If a player has the ability to place a Scorched Earth tile, they can choose any unoccupied space to place it on. Once the tile is placed, that space is considered occupied and cannot be used for the rest of the game. It’s important to make wise decisions when placing these tiles.
END OF GAME
Hey there! Let me tell you about an exciting game. It’s called “The Last Knight Standing.” Have you ever played it? It’s a game that keeps going until there’s only one player left. As we play, we might find ourselves in tricky situations where we can’t move our knights anymore. When that happens, we’re out of the game, and the rest of the players can keep playing. The game continues until only one player stands victorious. Can you imagine that feeling of being the last one standing? It’s quite an accomplishment!
