[edit] Rules

The game takes place on a map of Hell, based on Dante's descriptions. Hell is divided into 9 Circles, each of which is divided into 5 Sections. The game is won by controlling a whole Circle at the end of a turn, thus demonstrating to Lucifer that you are truly his most powerful servant.

Each player controls a Triumvirate of Daemons, each of which has a special power. Each Daemon allows the player to perform one action, for example playing a card or moving a Legion on the map. The Daemons are ranked, and will always take actions in the same order.

Each turn, random events will happen, and these can change the game significantly. For example, the arch-angel Uriel can turn up and slaughter anything he comes across.
