Welcome to continent of Esagono. Five factions share an ever shifting continent in an attempt to survive. Each believes the same thing: that the only way to secure peace is total control. You lead one of them in a campaign to conquer the continent one contested piece at a time.

Settle the land and draw resources from the tiles you claim. Trade resources, expand toward the victory mark, and when rivals march on you, fight with combat cards from a hidden hand and bluff your opponent.

Even in the lead you'll sweat every turn, and even in last you're never out of the game. Nothing is decided until the final move.

CHOOSE HOW YOU WIN Each class is a different path to victory:

• Warlord. Out-fight: cheaper armies, harder-hitting attacks.

• Economist. Out-produce: double a resource you border, trade at better rates.

• Architect. Out-build: every structure discounted, and tougher to crack.

• Trickster. Out-scheme: skim from rivals, and draw your combat cards to choose.

FEATURES

Five factions, one continent, one certainty: that peace waits on the far side of conquest.
