Drafting Phase - Players alternate drafting followers from the recruitment row to build a 9-card hand, taking into account their secret bonus scoring card. Card Placement Phase - Players alternate placing their followers on their own 3x3 grid, firing instant card abilities and taking care to maximize their placement to get the most value. Scoring Phase - Everyone tallies their 3x3 grid, adding each card's base score, any special card abilities, and their secret bonus scoring card. —description from the publisher
