Description

In Fief: England, you take control of the destiny of a family of lords in a revisited medieval era and try to make them the most powerful in the kingdom. To win, you must make good use of:

• your political strength, by building alliances through marriage, giving titles to your lords and ladies, and convening parliament to raise taxes,
• your economic strength through income from mills and abbeys, and taxes on towns, and
• your military strength, by raising troops (knights, sergeants, archers, crossbowmen) and by making good use of your siege engines (bombards and trebuchets).

Life would be a long, quiet stream if it were not for the calamities that can befall the kingdom:

• bad weather that spoils the crops,
• famine, which suppresses the income of mills and abbeys and leads to revolts,
• the Black Death which decimates your troops and can take the lives of your lords, and
• Viking invasions, which destroy cities, castles, abbeys, and other relics if they're not well defended.

All this is now yours to discover...
