From the BGG entry:

'The Legacy of Kings was a boardgame set in the AD&D Birthright world. It was played at conventions in the late 1990s. In 2000 it was made available for download from the Wizards of the Coast website.

'The game covers the grand strategic conflict for the continent of Cerilia. One player is the game moderator and also controls the Awnsheglien. The other players act as regents of the various realms.'

From the rules:

The Legacy of Kings was originally constructed in 1996 as a GEN CON® event to demonstrate how interplay could occur between rulers on the continent of Cerilia in the BIRTHRIGHT® campaign world. This demo became a much-simplified, but also well-liked, game in and of itself that was later run as a tournament at GENCON 1997. We played it on a large, painted map of Anuire and had hours of good fun with it. Now, we pass it along to you so you can do the same.
