In the era of the great discoveries, Portugal's largest cities prospered. Besides Porto and Lisbon, this is also the case for the city of Coimbra and its famous university. As the head of one of Coimbra's old houses, you feel that the city's growing wealth also increases the feeling of insecurity among its citizens. Well, not just any citizens, as you will be employing security guards to offer your protection services. Services offered to the city's most influential scholars, advisors, merchants and clerics (and hope to curry favour with them). After all, you want to curry favour with some of them and not all of them can be convinced with money to make you master of the city.
There are many ways to win. But whether you focus on increasing your financial income, recruiting new guards, promoting academic progress, deepening your relationship with the surrounding monasteries or travelling to this era, you will ultimately be victorious only if you perceive and use the new synergies that each new part of Coimbra offers. In addition to this, the struggle for the most helpful citizens of Coimbra is ensured by an original mechanic centred around dice and their placement to alter the order of play, your costs and your subsequent income.
