At the start of the game, each player starts with a king card in their hand. If you lose your king card you are out of the game. You have to play cards to force others to lose their king. Some cards may help you to gain cards and other cards may be used to deplete your opponents cards.

Certain types of cards can be used to battle against other people. You can use Horsemen, Knights, Guards, Squires and even Peasants to attack and defend your kingdom. KOC-cards--38-.png

If you declare war on another player, your side becomes the attacking side and their side becomes the defending side. You can play as many battle cards as you want during a batttle. Other players can join in the battle by playing their battle cards onto either player's side. KOC-cards--39-.png

If you play enough cards, your opponent will have to discard up to 3 cards. But be careful how many cards you play in a battle, because they are all discarded afterwards. ‎

Barons and strategists have good effects for both players. assassins, thieves and imposters have negative effects for the other player.

By playing guards, they can check cards in your hand for assassins, thieves and imposters. But if they check your barons or strategists, they will have to discard their guards.

By having power points, you can expand your kingdoms even faster. For every 5 power points you have at the start of your turn, you can draw an extra card. Power points allow you to gain cards faster quickly turning you into a dominating force. Cards like Peasants, Priests, Princesses and Princes will give you power points. KOC-cards--41-.png
