Conquest of the Fallen Lands is an exciting board game for 3 to 5 players. It is easy to learn, fun to play, and a typical game ends in about an hour. Even so, this game has the richness, atmosphere and depth of a larger-scale wargame.
You will find the complete rule set for Normal play below. If you are after a more complex game, you can move on to Advanced rules, which provide for even richer strategic options and deeper gameplay.
Here is what some reviewers say about it.
Tom Vasel:
“Conquest of the Fallen Lands is a very clever game with difficult decisions and high replayability… It plays great with three, four, or five players, and has an interesting, engaging theme.”
“Each time the game is played, the board is different, the cards drawn are different, and the player can try a new combination of followers. That variety is a lot of fun for me. I enjoy games that play differently each time, yet hold some basic precepts and offer decent strategy and tactics.”
Greg Schloesser, www.easttennesseegamers.com, writing for the Counter magazine:
“There is much to like here. Conquest of the Fallen Lands has numerous clever ideas, particularly the concept of using previous conquests – whether your own or your opponents’ – to support future attacks…
Conquest of the Fallen Lands is quite good and has a fresh feel. While the objective is similar, it is not your typical attack and conquer game. It also successfully avoids the usual pitfalls of most conquest games, which is quite refreshing. In fact, that is a good word to describe the game: refreshing.”
