How It Plays
Campaign / Battle Card Driven
Special cards trigger events and drive the action forward — each card played can shift the whole narrative.
Dice Rolling
You roll dice to determine outcomes — there's always that thrilling moment of suspense before they land!
Hand Management
You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.
Hexagon Grid
The board uses hexagons instead of squares — this gives you more directions to move and think about.
Modular Board
The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.
