Lorenzo de' Medici, also known as Lorenzo the Magnificent, was one of the most powerful and enthusiastic patrons of the Italian Renaissance. In Lorenzo the Magnificent, each player takes on the role of the head of a noble family in an Italian Renaissance city to gain more prestige and fame - that is, victory points (VPs) - than anyone else. To do this, you send your family members to different parts of the city, where they can get many achievements. In one place, they get useful resources; in another, development cards that represent newly conquered territories, sponsored buildings, influenced characters or encouraged businesses; and elsewhere, they activate the effects of their cards.
Family members are not identical. At the beginning of each turn, you roll three dice to determine their value. You must choose carefully where to send your most valuable family members... You can gain VPs in several ways, and you also have to be careful about your relationship with the church. The game is divided into three periods, each consisting of two rounds; at the end of each period, players must show their faith, and those who have not prayed enough will suffer severe penalties. After six rounds, you calculate your final score, and the player with the most points wins.
