The Dragonlords

Modern Conquest and War Games

The Dragonlords is a 1978 board game published by Fantasy Games Unlimited. It is a two player fantasy combat game set on the peninsula of Anador, where two wizard emperors command the peninsula's two largest nations and compete for dominion over three minor countries lying between them, as well as overall control of the peninsula. Before play each side chooses a wizard class, Sorcerer, Enchanter, Illusionist or Necromancer, which determines which of the 33 spells listed in the rulebook that player can use. Components include a rulebook, a paper map and die cut counters representing infantry, cavalry, flying units, leaders, ships and garrisons.
