YIELD First Look - Streamlined Strategy!

About Yield, from BoardGameGeek:

The Emperor Keralon is mad. His own daughter Lemron is starting a rebellion against him. Throughout the land, Leaders of the five most powerful houses of Oshra are gathering their armies. They want to extend their realm in the power vacuum of a civil war. Will you be victorious in battle and emerge as the most powerful dynasty of Oshra? Yield is set in the world of Oshra. and its story plays out 43 years prior to the events in Hidden Leaders. 2-5 players represent Leaders of powerful houses and try to conquer (and keep!) as many fortresses over 3 game rounds or 12 player turns as possible. You do this by commanding 3 armies across a tactical map by selecting action cards from your hand. Recruit units, conquer fortresses and defeat opponents in battles. After 3 rounds the player with the most victory points in form of controlled fortresses wins the game. -description from the designer
