Ambitious Citadel

Ambitious Citadel blends Abstract structure with Legacy chaos, delivering 122-minute arcs where every decision compounds into later chapters. Its Abstract framework encourages risky pivots, especially once table politics reshape priorities. Economy rails are intentionally unstable: once players trigger threshold events, 9 new scoring hooks reshape optimal lines. Scenario goals favor adaptive teams: one mission asks for diplomatic efficiency, the next demands aggressive engine conversion under time pressure. If your table likes post-game debriefs, Ambitious Citadel will spark them—nearly every finale feels earned, messy, and memorable.
