Aljubarrota (2009)

About this game

Aljubarrota is a cooperative game for 3 to 6 players, but it can be played solo as well. The game elements try to reproduce faithfully the events of the battle of Aljubarrota at the same time trying to teach some of the curious battle facts that made Nuno Álvares Pereira one of the finest military Portuguese strategists. To be published on the last trimester of 2009 by Majora.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 2.5/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 7 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
