How It Plays
Action Points
You get a limited number of action points each turn and choose how to spend them — prioritizing is everything.
Dice Rolling
You roll dice to determine outcomes — there's always that thrilling moment of suspense before they land!
Grid Movement
Pieces move on a grid of squares — straightforward movement that still leaves room for deep tactical thinking.
Modular Board
The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.
Variable Phase Order
The order of game phases can change each round depending on player choices — keeps everyone on their toes.
Variable Player Powers
Each player has unique abilities that make their experience different — finding the best way to use yours is half the fun.
