Since 2023, Scholars of the South Tigris: Kickstarter Translator Promo Cards has captivated fans of deck building and area control with its medium-light complexity design.

How It Plays

Area Majority / Influence

You're competing to have the most presence in key areas on the board — think of it like a friendly turf war.

Deck, Bag, and Pool Building

You start with a basic set of cards or tokens and gradually add better ones — watch your engine grow stronger over time.

Hand Management

You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.

Rondel

Actions are arranged in a circle, and your token moves around it — where you stop determines what you can do.

Tech Trees / Tech Tracks

You unlock new abilities or upgrades along a branching tech tree — each path opens up different strategies.
