Plus Ultra: The Court of the Emperor Charles V

Vorwort

In Latin, Plus Ultra means «further beyond». It refers to the premise or motto of the reign of Charles I of Spain and V of the Holy Roman Empire. Son of Philip I of Austria and Joanna of Castile, he governed during a good part of the 16th century vast territories which extended across Europe, America and Africa.

Plus Ultra is a board game of quick interaction and medium complexity, for two to four players. During the game, the players represent noblemen from the Spanish Court of the 16th century, who compete to obtain the title of Grandee of Spain (“Grande de España”). To achieve this, they will carry out dangerous endeavours in the name and for the glory of the Crown, with the help of influential personalities from the time’s society: “Almirante de la Mar Océana” (Admiral of the Oceanic Sea), cardinal, viceroy, pirate, conqueror… even the Emperor himself! At the start of each round, a draft of cards will allow the player to choose between two of the available characters. His actions will be resolved following a precise turn order (order of peers) previously established. Put your tactical and planning abilities to the test and become the Emperor’s chosen one!
