Warlords of Europe

[Gerald]

An Area movement, epic strategy game of medieval warfare set in 13th century Europe. Players compete to militarily dominate the fiefs and castles of Europe and thus be crowned Emperor by the Pope.

Warlords of Europe features nine major kingdoms of the time period, each subdivided into vassal fiefs. Each fief has its own terrain that affects its economic and defensive value. The Pope, Merchant, and Conquest decks of cards keep the action unpredictable. But, good fortune is no replacement for solid strategy, cautious planning and an excellent sense of timing. Players may start in any of the nine kingdoms making each play a unique experience.

So, pick up your swords and charge into Warlords of Europe!

Up to 4 people can play, each controlling one of nine kingdoms. Each fief provides gold with which you can outfit larger armies. Warlords is a turn based, area movement epic strategy game where terrain, event cards, and die rolls can sway the outcome of each battle.  Claim your own kingdom from native peasants, and conquer your enemies kingdoms as you are able. Use your cards to your advantage, but beware your opponent's cards.

I've read some good reviews about this game. It plays like a more advanced version of Axis and Allies, it has good components, as well as, interesting game play. There is a fair bit of randomness though. The downside of this game is probably the time required to play which is 2-4 hours, assuming an hour per player. There are also reports of considerable downtime. It is available from:

Out of curiosity, does any one have this here?
