Knights

 

All players try to enhance their influence by conquering castles after castle. To conquer a castle, win a tournament or collect special cards a player must roll the dice for multiple combinations like triplets or quadruplets, special cards give a wider scope of actions. With one of three possible one wins the game: either one collects four different castles or collects three different castles and dethrones the king by rolling 55551 or one has two different castles and 3 tournament cards. The active player names the card for which he rolls the dice, he chooses between cards from the draw pile and cards from other players. The card is won when the roll of the dice yields a better combination than the one printed on the card. With the exception of tournament cards one may only roll for cards that one does not yet own.
