Description:

About the Author\nPeer Sylvester started his career in boardgaming quite early, because his dad needed an opponent in chess. In third grade he wanted to become a professional chess player. Instead he turned out to become a teacher for math and chemistry. An award-winning board-game designer of titles like The Lost Expedition, The King is Dead, and Wir sind das Volk!, he has written a number of books on the subject.\nBenoit Billion was born in Nantes, France, and was from a young age fascinated medieval history and illustrated manuscripts. The art, the costumes, the architecture, and the heraldry of this age has always served as an inexhaustible source of inspiration for Benoit, and the celtic, romanesque, gothic, and renaissance styles formed the basics of his apprenticeship. He has produced illustrations in traditionnal mediums for local societies, musicians, publishers, advertising agencies, public institutions, and museums.\nA second edition of The King is Dead, a 2-4 player game of loyalty and politics in Medieval Britain.\nThe King is dead. The kingdom is divided. Three factions – the Scottish, the Welsh, and the English – vie for control and, across the sea, foreign invaders prepare to take advantage of the chaos. Players must marshal their limited resources to influence this power struggle, while ensuring that the faction that rises to dominate the realm favors them above all other claimants to the throne.\nThe King is Dead: Second Edition refreshes the accessible yet strikingly deep game with updated graphic design, gorgeous new artwork, and a brand-new asymmetric game mode for advanced play.\nPlayers: 2-4
Ages: 14+
