Great to see that Gibsons are bringing out a new edition of this classic game from the 1970s - which was a Gibson's game originally I believe? This is the game I first played as an absolutely raucous and chaotic 8 player game aged 12 that turned me in a lifelong boardgamer. I'm pleased that Gibsons allowed the new designer/developer to take the necessary time to improve this game with the more the 40 years of gameplay behind it, and taking into account modern advances in boardgame design and production, and the contributions from keen fans. The original has stood for more than 40 years, may the new edition stand for at least 40 more :-)

My buddy Bob Bledsaw made many variants for the game with new cards and rules. We had a lot of fun with it. It was a good game when getting a bunch of people together because even someone was late, they just start when they get there and no worry about having a quorom of players.

Oh boy I hope that’s not the final map

There are actually two maps. One is for Classic Kingmaker (that includes the original rules and variants_ and the other is for Kingmaker II (that is a newly revised version of the game that incorporates prestige victory and regional movement among many other things). Look for the Kickstarter on September 9th, 2022 for more details.
