Fief is a classic French-language game and is being re-introduced by Academy Games in English with updated rules, new units, a new and larger consolidated map, and more. This edition also includes additional components, which enhances game play.
The game board represents a portion of the Kingdom of France in the Middle Ages. Villages have square outlines that are connected by roads that allow Lord and Troop movement. The villages are grouped into eight colored background areas that represent individual Fiefs, which are domains given to Lords to preside over. Fiefs have different colored backgrounds and Bishoprics have heavy bordered outlines that include several different Fiefs. Each village also belongs to one of five church Bishoprics; each Bishopric is outlined with a heavy border line and is numbered between 1-5 along the edge of the board inside a Bishop's Mitre.
Each player controls up to four family members, comprised of male and female nobles. These family members will rise in power by gaining Royal and Ecclesiastic Titles.

What the community says about Fief: France 1429
Juego ambientado en la Francia Medieval, en el que cada jugador se hace cargo de una familia, que deberá gestionar para ir consolidando una posición de poder, tanto civil (rey, reina, principe) como eclesiástico (obispo, cardenal y papa). Se pueden casar miembros de una familia con miembros de otra y forjar así alianzas. La victoria se consigue en solitario, obteniendo tres puntos de victoria, o en alianza, con cuatro puntos. Es muy temático y los componentes son una auténtica delicia. Las reglas son sencillas, pero abundantes. Conviene tenerlas claras antes de empezar, para saber cómo avanza

I have several mixed feelings with this one, mostly all positives. The only cons I could have is in regard to the card descriptions or conflict resolution when someone else is blocking your way Lot of micro rules. You need to consult the rulebook many times to clarify specific situations. Being the voting system one of the hardest to settle down I rescue all that has to do with politics and negotiation within the game. It drives you to make alliances or betray others to reach your goals It's a huge Tug of War game. Lot of interaction. If nobody settles the end game, it could last hours, mea
