Description
El Grande is set in 15th-century Spain, at the end of the Reconquista. Players send out their knights to gain control of 9 regions and become "El Grande". But everything depends on where the king is – and things can change in the blink of an eye. Players take turns according to the power card they play. Each turn, players choose 1 of 5 action cards, which lets them place knights on the map and take a special action. After 3 rounds, they score points based on majorities in the various regions – plus extra points for majorities in the current king's region and their home region. After a total of 9 rounds, someone will be the new ruler of medieval Spain.
