Europe, 1347. A disaster is about to occur. The Black Death (the plague epidemic) reaches Europe and after a period of 4-5 years the population of Europe has halved. The players start in different regions in Europe, while the plague spreads across the continent. The players receive help from the different classes in the Middle Ages. The farmers ensure population growth, the wise monks ensure that the rats stay away, the rich merchants flee when the plague approaches, the knights' warfare spreads the plague to new areas, the witches control its spread with the help of of magic and witchcraft, while the kings prevented the plague by staying in fortified palaces. However, the plague makes no distinction: when the rats arrive, no one is safe anymore. When the plague recedes and the game ends, the player with the largest population still alive wins.<\/p>\n
