Overview

What ABG knows about this game

In Toledo players try to forge magnificent swords and bring them into the fortress of the city, the “Alcazar”. Each player can send his five helpers on the map and on to the roads of Toledo, in order to acquire steel and jewels from dealers. Thus they get swords manufactured at the most famous armorer in the city. Afterwards those swords are to be delivered to Alcazar. In addition there are two taverns (at which one “refuels” cards) as well as a place where the works of art of the resident painter, El Greco, are available. There is a lot to discover in Toledo.
