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!

Hexagon Grid

The board uses hexagons instead of squares — this gives you more directions to move and think about.

Line of Sight

Your units can only interact with what they can directly see on the board — positioning matters a lot.
