In Yucatan, you are the leader of a Mayan city. You have promised your people to win the favors of the Gods, and their fate is in your hands. Send your warlords to capture enemies, increase your might with every season of the sacred calendar, and sacrifice your prisoners to the Mayan gods to ensure your dominance.
Your warlords will become more and more formidable, your city more and more glorious, but your opponents do the same, so enlisting the help of the mythological creatures and heroes will be necessary to try to restore with blood, the energy of your gods.
In this game, your goal is to capture prisoners, and the Yucatan peninsula is your playground. Prepare for four seasons of fierce fighting. At the end of each season, you will ritually sacrifice captured enemies to gain reputation, but be careful because the gods are demanding: Each of your sacrifices must be more glorious than the last. Each decision matters in the subtle balance required to make your city the glorious and eternal sanctuary of the mighty Mayan gods.

Rulebook is "how this got approved for printing" bad. We powered through learning game, it is nice idea, but game lacks area-control/fighting tension, overall strategy feels non-existent - in three player game we ended up just one by one re-entering same one city. lot of fiddly elements and components, in core it feel like very bad Bloodrage.

Pre-ordered now on KS, but with hugh additional costs I think I'll drop out... Shipping + TAX 20%... it will be to expansive! And it's an European company..., means buying this later inside Europe (France) will be much (really much) cheaper... KS makes for Europeans makes no sense.

Rulebook is horrible. Must use reddit for several questions. The first round is basically scripted there is easily seen best plays and cards to play in battle. Had a really mediocre time with it.
