The boss, who is not a monster, is harder to kill, with its 10 life points and when a player successes to kill him, the game is over. Each time a monster or a boss leave your path to reach your city, you lose a number of city guards equal to their movement value. You begin at 15 and even if you lose your last one, you don't lose the game, you will just earn less victory points than the other players. HOW TO WIN?
