The War for the Floor has begun once more!
Catapult Kingdoms is a game of last person standing. Your objective is to knock down all your opponent's troops!
Starting with the youngest player, choose your family: Chaufort or Cunningfields. Then, use your bricks to build a castle to fortify your troops. Using your catapult, launch boulders in an attempt to destroy your opponent's castle and knock over their troops. When all troops of one family are knocked over, the battle is over. The winning family must have at least one troop standing upright.
The game is played in a series of rounds. During a round, starting with the youngest player, everyone takes a turn. Each player's turn is divided into four phases: Tactics, Aim, Fire and Cleanup. Perform these phases in order, finishing each one before moving to the next. When all players have had their turn, the round finishes. You keep on playing round after round until there is only one player with troops on the table.
