Description

The Hundred Years War rages on; the English are laying siege to Orléans, a strategic city between the north and the south of the Loire, between those territories annexed by the English and those held by the French Dauphin.

Despite the English forces, Joan of Arc manages to get into the city. The inhabitants and the troops rally around her. You are one of Joan of Arc’s Companions, like Dunois, De Laval and La Hire, and your aim is to distinguish yourself as much as possible during this battle.

Show yourself around enemy fortresses, confer with Joan or the Dauphin, deploy your troops and be ready when Joan launches her attack.

Aim of the game:
You are Joan’s Companions and your common enemy are the English. To liberate the fortresses, you will need to cooperate.
But you need to know that only one will be the winner : The Companion who gathers the more prestige during the battle.
He will have the great honor to accompany Joan and the Dauphin to Reims for the coronation.
So be vigilant, place your troops at the right place and at the right time to shine more and acquire more prestige than the other Companions.
