R vs. R : R

Regality vs. Religion: Revolution

 

Secular against clerical powers leads to Revolution – this is the subtitle of this card placement game, each of the two players wants to take over control of the state. On a territory of 9 squares you alternate in placing personages. When 5 or more positions are taken by one faction, this faction has won the game. All characters in the game have abilities to control opponents, to influence them and win them over to the other side or to eliminate them using intrigue or magical powers. Neutral personages have very specific and very powerful abilities.

One player receives7 cards for Royal powers in red, the other 7 cards for Religious Powers in blue, these cards have identical abilities. Both players lay out these cards open-faced, their abilities are known and public. From the remaining card the Citizen is removed, the rest is shuffled and 5 cards are laid out openly, this is the neutral zone. The remaining neutral cards are set aside; they are not used in the game. The starting player receives the citizen, whom he places first. Then the other player places a neutral card or one of his citizen, this can already influence the other card, Players continue to alternate, the game ends when the board is full and all repercussions have been dealt with. If after that you have most allies- cards that face your direction – you win.

The rules name variants for the number of neutral cards used in the game and how to allocate them and how to use them.

Despite interactions of the cards being manifold and complex, somehow it reminds of Tic Tac Toe – where am I placed, how do I secure my position?
