Neither King Nor God – Limited Edition is a tense, highly interactive strategy game set amid the shifting loyalties and brutal ambition of Renaissance Europe. In a world where gold outweighs crowns and faith bends to power, mercenary armies march for the highest bidder and alliances last only as long as they remain useful.

Players take command of one of four dominant powers — England, France, the Papacy, or the Holy Roman Empire — each with distinct strengths, objectives, and overlapping ambitions. Victory is never straightforward, as advancing your own position may bring a rival closer to triumph through a different path.

• Hidden Courtiers system: Secretly deploy agents such as generals, bishops, merchants, spies and assassins to key centres across Europe, revealed in unpredictable order.
• Multiple paths to victory: Political, military, economic and religious strategies are all viable, and often dangerously interconnected.
• Constant negotiation and tension: Alliances shift rapidly, with players forced to adapt as plans unravel or unexpectedly succeed.
• Limited Edition production: Includes premium components and presentation for collectors and dedicated strategy gamers.

The heart of the game lies in timing and deception. Courtiers can command armies, convert cities, dominate trade routes or sabotage rivals, creating dramatic turns where long-laid schemes either collapse or suddenly pay off. Every decision carries risk, and no victory comes without empowering someone else along the way.

Neither King Nor God balances historical flavour with a streamlined, fast-moving system that keeps the focus on negotiation, positioning and decisive action rather than rules overhead. It is a game of sharp minds, broken promises and calculated betrayal.

Box contents include:
• Mounted game board of Renaissance Europe
• Over 300 wooden components representing armies, fleets, barrels and Courtiers
• Faction sheets and player aids

A ruthless and compelling strategy game where loyalty is bought, faith is a weapon, and no crown is ever secure.
