	Description Edit \| History

Translated as Soldier of Fortune, this game features players trying to construct a castle. Each turn, players secretly select two actions from a possible six. If a player is the only one to pick a particular action, then the action gives more benefits. Otherwise, players pick certain actions to earn money, build pieces of their castle, steal from other players, or receive special action cards.
