### What is it? **7th Sea: City of Five Sails** is an expandable #cardgame set in the swashbuckling world of Chaosium’s **[7th Sea](https://web.archive.org/web/20220703234953/https://www.chaosium.com/7th-sea/)** roleplaying game by John Wick. Players control one of five factions as they fight to influence, control, and explore the independent and unruly city of Five Sails. The game supports two players (1 vs. 1) and larger multiplayer games too, typically up to 4 people in the same game.  During the game, each player represents a leader who, along with their allies, explore locations and fight both with swords and with wits for overall influence over the city. Along with each player’s individual deck, 7th Sea: City of Five Sails also includes an element of randomness in the form of a separate, shared deck that represents the city itself with unusual characters, items, and events that change the  focus of the game. Combat is resolved in a unique “back and forth” style reminiscent of challenging swashbuckling swordplay - It's really fun! ### Where can I find out more?

It was a fantastic event, it was so much fun! This event was the first time travelling for a competitive event - I learnt a lot, met lovely people, and played lots and lots, and lots of 7th Sea! I went into the event hoping to 'win' last place, and I met my expectations! The game is fun. The community is fun. I'll be attending more events in the future!
