Will you decide to create a military empire and populate your realm with generals, knights, and archers?  Will you take advantage of the market by training your children to be merchants, negotiators, and analysts?  Will you populate your empire with magic, labor, or entertainment workers... or a combination of two or more employment branches?  It's up to you to decide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlay time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120 min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplexity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.00 \/ 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lee Kress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Dog Breath Games LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51927141449944,"sku":"SB-D48B9D40A2F3-BOARD-GAMES-UNK-SEALED","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6271\/0488\/files\/tq5gml42vbt9n0qr06siv00z2l90.jpg?v=1785466820","url":"https:\/\/abbyboardwalkstore.com\/products\/empires-of-zidal","provider":"Boardwalk Cafe \u0026 Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
