#19 - King Of The Tabletop

Each player controls a kingdom made up of land tiles of different terrains (mountains, forest, etc), castles, settlements, and people and creatures.
The object of the game is to have a certain amount of prestige, judged based on the size of one's kingdom, treasury, and the number of special heroic characters inhabiting the kingdom, as well as having a Grand Muniment (very large castle).
This game was originally published in Dragon #77. Errata appeared in Dragon #78.<7br>

#5 - Walls Of Light

Walls of Light is a light strategy game for 2-3 players. Each player places their colored winks to complete the cathedrals windows. Colored winks can be combined to make new colors. When a craftsman completes a window, he earns points for the number of different colors within that window. All craftsman then earn points for their colored panes in the completed window. The colored dice are used to determine which of the six windows the master craftsman may work on this turn, and in what way they may place their colored pane. Strategy is enhanced with the stained glass cards which allow dice to be rerolled, the switching of colors, the adding of extra colors on your turn, etc.
