Most plans result in a dice roll, and most dice rolls pull their difficulty from the players position on the three tracks: power, knowledge, and esteem. It's much harder to spread rumors about a character at the top of the esteem track!

Once the game is fully underway, you'll take turns setting scenes and preparing plans. Each of the game's twelve plans resolves after a number of turns, so other players have a chance to use their scenes to prepare for the war you're starting, rumor you're spreading, or party you're hosting

Before the main event starts, you'll have grudges against each other that will drive the story forward. You dusted off an ancient law in the prologue and used it to steal my castle, so prepare yourself for when I come to take it back

THE PROLOGUE - this is where character and world creation happen at the beginning of Uneasy Lies the Head. Players will choose titles, laws, and homes from the list and create assets with the playing cards granted by their choice. If somebody already has that card, take its asset from them instead
