City of Guilds (2009)

The Great City of Andalanshar, capital of the nation of Andal, ruled by the great potentate and council of Andals, but controlled by the 6 great guilds. Now the great potentate has died and the council members are all vying to gain control of the city. To do this they must gain the support of the people and the guilds...

City of Guilds is a board game for 1-4 players, where the players try to gain control of the city by gaining influence in the various districts of the city. They do this by assuming the roles of 1 of the 6 great guilds and by playing action cards.

UPDATED 14th August 2009

After playtesting I've made a few changes, so there is a new rules PDF which has a few clarifications (including that players can now no longer draw from the discard pile unless they have that guild ability) and new Guild cards (tried to balance the actions and abilities a bit better and have removed a couple of broken actions/abilities).

City of Guilds is an area control game with a role selection mechanic giving players different abilities from round to round. It is being developed by Andy Oakey (awakener76) and a big thankyou goes out to Allan Dade and Frank Griese (linael) for their sterling work playtesting it.
