Defenders of the Realm

The King and his Heroes fight in Monarch City against Orcs, Dragons, Demons and the Dead. Players win together when they defeat all four generals, they lose together when either one of the four generals enters Monarch City or if there are not enough minions to be put on the board for a Darkness Spreads Card or when the last of 12 Tainted Crystal is placed on the board or when 5 enemy minions are in Monarch City at the same time. There is an overall winner of the game, the Champion of the King, with the highest score from filled Quest Cards and general character cards. A move comprises day = actions, evening = draw hero cards and night = Darkness Spreads Cards.
