<p style="top:326.5pt;left:297.5pt;font-size:11.0pt">Areas have a Castle Limit of 0-3.</p>
<p style="top:339.6pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">Castle Limits reflect the economic value</p>
<p style="top:352.8pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">of an area, more than the strength of a</p>

<p style="top:379.0pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">actually contained a dozen or more castles.</p>
<p style="top:392.1pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">Castle Limits define how many blocks can</p>
<p style="top:405.3pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">remain in an area over the winter and also</p>

<p style="top:521.5pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">cathedral adds [+1] to the Castle Limit for</p>
<p style="top:534.6pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">the Scots, but has no value to the English.</p>
<p style="top:547.8pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">For example, Fife is worth [3] to the Scots,</p>
<p style="top:560.9pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">but only [2] to the English. The Scots</p>
<p style="top:574.0pt;left:278.8pt;font-size:11.0pt">King may move to a Friendly or Neutral</p>
