The players move through the Himalayas on earthen trails, icy tracks and stone paths. As tribal chiefs they travel from village to village, and collect raw materials or fulfill orders. With them they can secure game-critical influence -- in political, economic and religious areas. Each player plans his own way through the mountains and at the same time tries to foil the plans of the other chieftains. Who will hold sway in the Himalayas remains up in the air until the very end. Due to its easily understood rules, this complex game is equally suitable for families and gamers.
