In Lancaster , the players want to proceed from simply being a
Lord to being the most powerful ally of the king. They may achieve this
by developing their own knighthood, as well as by clever deployment of
individual knights in the counties of England, at their own castle, and
to conflicts with France. In parliament, they try to push laws from
which they will benefit themselves most. The player with the most power
points at the end of the game is the winner.
Every turn, players send their knights to the different locations:
• Counties, where they compete with knights from other players for rewards and the favor of the nobles.
• The castle, to receive income or new knights.
• Into conflict with France, where all players combine their power and try to gain power points.
In the counties, the strength of the knights is important, as you can
remove the knight of another player by placing a knight of your own
with higher strength in the same location.
