Phase One: Recruit foll
This phase consists of thirteen tricks, one for each card in each player’s hand. The Leader for each trick is the player
who won the last trick (exception: Dragons). The rst Leader of the game is the youngest player
following these three steps:
Reveal one card
Flip the top card from the deck in the middle of the table and place it between both players. The players will be compe-
ting for this card.
Play cards
1. The Leader plays any single card from his hand.
Note: He can choose a card of any faction, this doesn’t have to be a card of the faction the players are competing for
2. Then the other player plays any single card from their hand.
Important: If able, the other player must follow faction. Which means, if this player has a card in their hand of the
faction of the card just played then it must be played. In other words, a player can only play a card of a different
faction if no card in their hand matches the faction of the one played by the Leader
Collect cards
1. The player that played the highest valued card (0 is the lowest, 9 the highest) of the faction played by the Leader wins
the card in the middle. In case of a tie, the Leader wins the trick.
Note: If the second player played a card of another faction than the Leader automatically wins the trick.

2. The winner of the trick places both played cards face-up in their Score pile, unless a faction power (T

3. If either player has played a Giant card, the player winning the trick may discard one opponent’s won Gnome card for
each Giant in this trick with the same value.
After all players
End of the game & S
The players count how many cards of each faction they have in their Score pile. Whoever has the most cards of a faction
wins that faction’s vote. If there is a tie, whoever has the highest numbered card of that faction wins the vote. If a tie
still exists check who has the second highest numbered card of that faction, and so on.
The player who wins the vote of the most factions wins the game. In case of a tie for the most factions the player with
the most cards of factions which voted for him, wins the game.

value. Discard the smashed Gnome. It won’t be scored and at the end of the game.
Example 1: Player A plays a Giant 3. Player B plays a Giant 5. Player B wins the trick and may smash a Gno-
me 3 and a Gnome 5 of Player A. Player A has two Gnome 3 cards and one Gnome 7 card in front of him. He
discards one Gnome 3.
Example 2: Player A plays a Giant 1. Player B cannot follow faction and plays a T
trick and may smash a Gnome 1 of player B.
Example 3: Player A plays a Dragon 4. Player B cannot follow faction and plays Giant 3. Player A wins the
trick and may smash a Gnome 3 of player B.
Note: If a player doesn’t have a Gnome with the same value, the won Giant is placed on the winner’s score
pile without any consequences. This Giant won’t smash any Gnomes this game.
Dragons
The last player to play a dragon in a trick will be the leader for the next trick regardless of its value or whether
the player followed faction. The winner still takes the card(s) as usual.
Example 1: Player A plays a Dragon 7. Player B plays a Dragon 3. Player A wins the trick, but Player B will be
the leader for the next trick.
Example 2: Player A plays a Giant 5. Player B plays a Dragon 4. Player A wins the trick, but player B will be
the leader for the next trick.
