Description
Lancaster is a worker placement game that takes
place during the time of Henry V of Lancaster, King of England. During the
course of the game, players will deploy their knights to counties within
England, to their castles, or to conflicts with France. Each location type
brings its own reward. A player’s knight can be forced out of a county location
by an opponent’s stronger knight. Conflicts can be won through cooperation
among players, with the rewards being split based on the strength of the
knights committed to the conflict. Additionally, players will vote on laws
coming out of Parliament. These laws affect the abilities that players have on
their turn.

The game lasts five rounds with players earning points by
gathering up noblemen from the counties, by being victorious in conflicts with
France, by adding the most strength to their knights, and by building the most
extension onto their castles. The player with the most points after 5 rounds
will be the winner.
