Goal of the game

On the night of 31 October 1470, a mysterious fleet appeared in the cold waters off the north-western edge of the kingdoms. Attacking on sight all the boats that cross its path, this gloomy armada, which is said to be always surrounded by thick fog, sails straight towards the land. The few sailors who have successfully boarded one of its menacing ships have all given the same astonishing account: there was no crew on board. As the rumours spread, it's up to you to face the ghost ships!

Collect supply points, recycle useless cards in hand, and sink all pirate ships in naval battles.

The naval battle is fought on two grids or boards. Obtained cards are used to eliminate all of the opponent's ships in a battle in order to move on to the next battle. The opponent is always the computer.

Ships are placed randomly on the naval battle grids, and their type depends on the level of the battle:

    • Armada barge.png - Barge: 2 squares
    • Armada genovese ship.png - Genovese Ship: 3 squares
    • Armada battle cog.png - Battle Cog: 4 squares
    • Armada battle carrack.png - Battle Carrack: 5 squares
    • Armada napadelis.png - Napadelis: 5 squares (pirate's flagship)

Individual squares of the enemy's grid can be:

  • non-revealed:
    • Armada foggy ocean.png: the ocean is foggy
  • revealed:
    • Armada clear ocean.png: the ocean is clear
    • Armada spotted ship.png: the part of the ship is spotted
    • Armada ship hit.png: the part of the ship or loot is hit
    • Armada missed shot.png: the shot is missed
    • Armada loot spotted.png: the loot is spotted

There are a total of 6 battles, the 6th of which can be played again after completion, without limit.
