From Z-Man:
The bell tolls across the city’s bustling marketplace. Spices, cloth, and jewels fill the market stalls. The offering is plentiful, with vendors loudly barking out prices for their wares. Recent trades have been kind to the city, and riches abound.
Suddenly, a drumbeat echoes in the distance. The hum of the city quiets, listening as the cadence continues its steady approach, getting louder with each thunderous boom. An invading army has arrived.
We are thrilled to welcome Condottiere into the Z-Man Games catalog. For those new to the game, you’re in for a treat as Condottiere is widely revered as a modern classic for its delicious player interaction, flexible player count, and compact package (big game, small box).
During the Renaissance Era, Italy was divided into numerous independent city-states. While bursting with wealth, the city-states’ growing concern over jealous neighbors invited the rise of the Condottieri, ambitious leaders of powerful mercenary armies. Players hire the Condottieri to engage in battle and establish influence in the many regions of Italy. If a player can claim three adjacent regions or five regions total, they gain control and win the game. However, players must be careful in how they send out their mercenaries, as only the strongest army will win the battle. How much will you risk to win?
