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.

Campaign / Battle Card Driven

Special cards trigger events and drive the action forward — each card played can shift the whole narrative.

Point to Point Movement

You move between connected locations on the board — the map's layout decides your travel options.

Variable Player Powers

Each player has unique abilities that make their experience different — finding the best way to use yours is half the fun.
