In the game you are one of the five Grandmasters, leading an order of knighthood, and you help to build up a Medieval Town to become a Citadel with beautiful houses and buildings. You can influence your own progress in the game, of course. A special feature in this game is the Influence Card, which gives you the chance to counter your opponents. You can take new territories, take over territories of other Grandmasters or create disorder in the citadel by burning down an important building on the board.



Since the establishment of the Citadel, the forces of good and evil have held one another in balance. But the turbulent growth of the flourishing city is also attracting shady figures. People are talking about the arrival of a Dark Master. The more the dark forces increase, the more attractive it is to defect to the dark side. Which Grand Masters will help the Dark Master in his quest for an overpowering influence in the city and which right-minded Grand Masters will work together to push back his influence?

In Treason the battle for power is unleashed. This results in an unavoidable confrontation between good and evil in an exhilarating showdown. Make your choice quickly, because if the Dark Master wins and his identity is revealed, it will be too late to choose!

In this strategic sequel to The Indomitable Citadel, anything can happen.
