Description:

The castle at the center of the Oniverse is under attack. The dream denizens of the oniverse rush to build their castle defense against three monster attacks. Towers allow you to see what is coming.

Keeps can help minimize damage. Ranks can reduce the effects of the traitors found inside your walls. Of course, the denizens have special powers of their own to aid in the defense. Will you be able to survive these attacks?

Castellion is a tile-laying game in which you form parts of the castle for defense against monsters. Each turn you flip over a tile and either use its special ability or place it as part of your castle.

The more towers and keeps you form, the better your defense against attacks.

Ranks prevent traitorous tiles from affecting you fully. When all three monsters have attacked and you still have a base of six tiles, you win.

But, before you encounter the Menace itself, you may wish to learn what is taught at the School of Architects, or submit to- training at the ^Admiral s ^Academy. ..

Object of the Game

Castellion is a tile game that may be played solitaire or co-operatively with a second player. The game presents three successive levels of play: …



The School of Architects: Introductory Level

The Vigil (an Easier, more Tactical Game)

At the beginning of the game, place the Menace pawn in front of you. Draw a tile from the "safe" pile and place it next to the pawn. This tile is your "Vigil".

Whenever you draw a Defender tile, you have a third possible action, in addition to

A) Place it or B) Discard it:

A-2) Replace the Vigil: Swap the Defender tile you just drew with the Vigil tile. You must now place or discard this tile as though you just drew it. There is now a new tile next to the Menace; it is your new "Vigil" which you may choose to swap for on a future turn. …



All rules of the expert level apply, with the following exceptions:

Setup

Place the 6 Pantry tiles in front of you.

Game Play

From now on, you may choose to place a Pantry tile instead of drawing a Dream tile, and place it in your castle. The rules for placing Pantry tiles are the same as those for placing Defender tiles.

All other rules that apply to tiles (destroying, moving, etc). also apply to Pantry tiles. However, Pantry tiles may not be part of a defensive formation. …



The School of Architects: Introductory Level

The rules for two players are identical to those used for solitaire play, with the following exceptions:

Setup

Place the Champion of the Oniverse card nearby.

Game Play

Each player builds her own castle.

You may not directly place a drawn Defender tile into your partner's castle. You may, however, donate a drawn Defender tile to your partner.

To do so, you must destroy a tile in your own castle (you may not destroy a tile that has other tiles above it, nor may you destroy a tile that would split your castle into two separate structures). …
