Pelegrinus 2018

6th century ... Saint-Benoît has just finished writing his rule. He describes in 73 chapters how the life of the monks should be managed. Here comes the time of the monastic orders. They will organize themselves and seek to develop their influence.

In Pelegrinus, you lead one of them, launch yourself into the spiritual conquest of Europe. Consolidate your influence by building commandies across the continent, then erect powerful abbeys to assert your power in different regions. Do not forget the intrigues of the papal courts, for the support of the sovereign pontiff will often be valuable to you. Lastly, gather under your protection various relics and maintain a firm control over the lucrative pilgrimage routes. However, you are not alone; other orders intrigue in the shadows to double you on the path of power.
