			== Overview ==
			The Quest: Defeat a deck of foes with your 5 dice in this yahtzee/dice manipulation D&D inspired adventure. Once defeated, you gain the cards' special dice modification abilities. You must use them judiciously, as your final score is the number of cards captured that you DIDN'T use...but if you fail to defeat a monster each turn, you lose the game.

	== Solo Play ==		== Solo Play ==
	~~Shuffle the deck, then play~~ the following phases:		Play the following phases:

			[1] The quest area is replenished to 5 creature cards.

			[2] Roll 5d6 - If you roll a combination matching the dice shown at the bottom of a card, you can declare that you beat it and put it in your army area.

			If you can beat more than one card, choose one.

	[1] ~~Draw cards and place them face up in~~ the ~~quest area until there are 5 cards~~.		[3] Free reroll - Once per turn you can try to get better dice results by rerolling any number of dice, keeping the new results.

	~~[2] Roll 5d6; if you get a combination matching~~ the ~~dice shown in one of the lower parts~~ of a ~~card,~~ you ~~can declare that you beat it: put it in your army area. If you can beat more than one card, choose which one you beat~~.		Note that the very first roll of a game you get 2 free rerolls.

	[3] ~~Free reroll; you~~ can ~~try to get better dice results rerolling~~ any number of ~~diceat once, keeping the new results~~. ~~Every very first roll of a game gets 2 free rerolls~~.		[4] Modify roll - You can use any number of cards in your army to modify your dice roll. Discard each army card after you use it.

	~~[4] Modify roll; you can use any number of cards from your army to modify your rolled dice, so as to beat a card in the quest area. Discard each army card after you use it.~~ The effect of an army card ~~depends on~~ the symbol in its upper right corner:		The effect of an army card is depicted by the symbol in its upper right corner:

	[5] Check~~; if~~ you ~~managed to~~ beat a card, start over from phase [1]. If you didn't, you lose. If the deck ~~and~~ the quest area have no cards left, you won~~: your~~ SCORE is the number of cards left in your army.		[5] Check for game end conditions - If you beat a card and there are more monster cards to beat, start over from phase [1]. If you didn't defeat a monster, you lose the game. If the deck AND the quest area have no cards left, you won. Your SCORE is the number of cards left in your army.
