About the Game

Cid Campeador: Warlord is a strategic-level wargame set in the tumultuous Moorish Spain of the late 11th century. Players step into the shoes of iconic figures from the era, vying for supremacy on the Iberian Peninsula. The game spans the dramatic 15 years from 1085 to 1099, a period marked by El Cid's exile, the expansion of Christian kingdoms, and the growing influence of the Almoravids.

Cards grant players initiative, operation points, and the ability to trigger game-changing events. Treasure, acquired through conquest and plunder, provides additional benefits. Player interaction is intense, with strategic alliances, betrayals, and direct confrontations shaping the outcome. Fate cards add an element of chance and unpredictability.

While designed for four players, Cid Campeador: Warlord can be enjoyed with fewer. The AI takes control of absent factions, ensuring a challenging experience for solo or two-player games.

Victory is determined by accumulating the most victory points, earned through territorial conquest, strategic objectives, and controlling key locations.
