Legends of the Three Kingdoms

Legends of the Three Kingdoms

2023·凌宇 (LING Yu)

2 - 4 players
45 - 60 min

From BoardGameGeek

In 三国群英录 (Legends of the Three Kingdoms), you'll step into the chaotic era of the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Four dominant factions - Wei, Shu, Wu, and Independent forces - each led by three valiant generals. Your mission is to select a faction, form your team, devise strategies, conquer territories, recruit soldiers, and compete for victory. Each general possesses distinctive skills that can be utilized by expending morale. With cunning tactics, strategic planning, and unwavering courage, can you elevate your faction, unite the Three Kingdoms, and emerge as the ultimate hero? In the game, there are four factions: Wei, Shu, Wu, and Independent. Each faction can select three generals to form its team and then draw a target card. During each round, players have the option to move, recruit (strengthening their generals), or attack (targeting enemy generals or territories). Each general possesses unique skills that can be activated by expending morale. Additionally, players can employ strategy cards to change the course of the game; each faction features its own special card effects. Gameplay 1. Action Phase Players can perform the following actions in any sequence: General Action: Each general can execute one action. General Skills: Each general can utilize multiple skills. Strategy Card: Players are allowed to play multiple strategy cards. 2. Card Drawing Phase Players draw two strategy cards and may then discard until they have six cards in hand. If the hand contains fewer than six cards after drawing, no discarding is necessary. Alternatively, players can opt to skip the entire card drawing stage, neither drawing nor discarding cards. Victory Condition The game ends when a player's merit reaches the maximum limit, initiating the final settlement phase. Each player's total merit equals the merit displayed in the merit column plus the achievements from the target card. The player with the highest total merit wins.
