From the publisher:The knights set off from their castles to conquer the surrounding land. For the wealth of the big towns and the villages belonging to them is just too tempting.Of course, once in possession, no knight wants to lose his newly acquired properties, so this means: caution. For the other playersknights are awake to any opportunity and the newly gained land may be lost again just as quickly to a new lord.Bring your landscape tiles and above all your knights skilfully into play, secure your properties on all sides and watch out for enemy knights at all time. - BoardGameGeek
