## Description
In the 14th century, England has a presence in France, and as Charles, it’s up
to you to get rid of them. You are heir to the throne, and will have power if
you can recapture the city of Rheims from the English, with Joan’s help as
everybody else thinks it’s a lost cause.
Combat is one major aspect of this arcade-strategy hybrid. Armies are made up
of archers, cavalry and foot soldiers, whose movement and firing angle must be
controlled. Storming a city also involves defeating some staunch defences.
Once you have overall control, your goal is to reunite France, by retaking
each city in turn. You must raise taxes so as to have the adequate funds (but
don’t let provinces become unhappy, they can rebel), and use this money to
fund a big army. Sometimes the pen is mightier than the sword though – many
devious diplomatic tactics are available, including bribery and poison.
