About the game
In Victus: Barcelona 1714, the players become the high military rank that must defend the city of Barcelona during the Bourbon siege, from 07/25/1713 to 09/11/1714. The players must collaborate to defend Barcelona from the assaults and avoid the surrender. If the players get that Barcelona doesn't fall before the end of the game, they'll win; otherwise, all of them will lose. A Victus – Barcelona 1714 els jugadors assumeixen el paper de la plana major militar encarregada de defensar la ciutat de Barcelona durant el setge de les tropes borbòniques, des del 25 de juliol de 1713 fins a l’11 de setembre de 1714. Els jugadors han de col·laborar entre ells per defensar Barcelona dels assalts francoespanyols i aconseguir que la ciutat no es rendeixi. Si els jugadors aconsegueixen que Barcelona no caigui abans del final de la partida, hauran guanyat; en cas contrari, tots perdran.
