Description
Granada is an exciting game that marked one of the
most pivotal, but largely forgotten, moments in Western Civilization:
the fall of Moslem Spain. Without it, Spain would not have
been able to send Columbus on his historic voyage.
Players control the dual monarchy of Spain or the
kings of Granada. Each player has knights, cavalry and foot
soldiers to carry out their commands. The Spaniards have
suprior forces, but the Moores have virtually unlimited reinforcements
from Africa. Control of the ports, and therefore access to
these reinforcements, is key.
The game includes 120 one inch counters, and a 22
x17 inch hard mounted board. It easy to learn, with only 8 pages of
rules. Playing time is 1 to 2 hours.
