Description: PLEASE NOTE: A portion of the shrink wrap is missing/torn (see images), although this has not affected the integrity of the actual box. This game, which is most fun with 4 players but can be played with just 1, puts you in control of the fate of your island. Whether you choose to use your powers to train your population, build war canoes, or expand your village and control of the land is up to you as you strive to become the only chief of New Zealand. You must strategize against your enemies as each of you struggle for control, using the resources of the island to your advantage so you can come out on top. Game Description: The Time: About 1450 AD. The Place: the Polynesian island chain of Aotearoa, now known as New Zealand. The clan chiefs have always struggled for control of your island, since it was first discovered (totally uninhabited) many generations ago. But now, population pressures have added new Impetus to these clashes, and the traditional divisions of the North Island are ready to collapse into the chaos of war. Will you succeed in becoming New Zealand's sole paramount chief? Or will you and your warriors be on the menu of your opponent's victory celebration? Maori: Warriors of the Long White Cloud is a card-driven war game that puts you in charge of a complex society as you try to impose your will on your neighbors-using essentially stone-age technology. Players begin the game on the North Island of Aotearoa, in charge of only a single iwi (or tribe). Other players are scattered across the map, with the many intervening iwi still neutral in this power struggle. Also on the map, there to give your production a boost, are populations of seals and moa, the giant flightless birds that once roamed the islands. You, too, might drive them to extinction. You must use your force of will to recruit neighboring iwi, using their people and resources to increase your power base. You begin with almost nothing, so you must train population into a fighting force, build war canoes, and expand your base by building and fortifying new villages. Should you focus on building a large land force, or building fast and flexible war canoes? You decide!
