Medieval

Medieval is a card game for 3-to-5 players covering, very loosely, the events, situations, and rivalries of the 13^th century. Medieval uses the Enigma^TM system, in which the playing map is represented by cards, not all of which are present at start.

The 13^th century saw the Papacy at the peak of its power, the Holy Roman Empire struggling to remain cohesive, England under the turmoil of baronial revolts, the emergence of monarchial France, the Teutonic Knights looking to extend their powers, Venice controlling the seas of the Mediterranean, Spain continuing the Reconquista, while Islam started its rejuvenation process under the Mameluks. And then there were the Mongols.
