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.
