Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Germany and Italy, was a man of extraordinary culture, energy, and ability. His contemporaries called him "stupor mundi" ("the wonder of the world"), and many historians consider him Europe's first modern ruler. The kingdom Frederick established in Sicily and southern Italy ran on an efficient bureaucracy similar to modern, centrally governed kingdoms.
As one of Frederick II's vassals in Stupor Mundi, you will summon allies from around the Mediterranean, build structures in your castle, and promote specialists to improve your kingdom. You may improve your chances by upgrading your castles: towers house additional allies, walls store more resources, and keeps aid in managing action cards. Through a clever card-selection mechanism, you will have to choose actions carefully, some of which will trigger edicts that affect Frederick's palace, and determine the rewards players may receive from their allies. Do you stay loyal to the Emperor, or do you support independent allies? Keep a close eye on what your opponents do and form alliances at the right time — or go your own way when things get too heated...
The Master print edition also contains the Miracula expansion, which consists of two modules that you can add and combine at will to your game of Stupor Mundi:
1. The Postponed Crusade: In this module, Pope Honorius III is pushing Frederick II to organize a crusade. You will add a number of Crusade boards to your game, which will all allow you to perform special actions that replace one of the 5 main actions of the game. These will benefit you greatly, but be careful: if you or other players abuse these actions, their advantages will greatly diminish as the game progresses …
2. The Imperial Projects: In this module, Frederick II call upon his vassals to construct awe-inspiring castles across his realm. You will have to challenge yourself to achieve special building conditions, but adding Imperial structures to your castle will wield you great rewards a the end of the game.
