Overview

  • Work together!
  • Defend Aughmoore from the hordes of attacking Enemies.
  • Ultimately defeat the Epic Foe.


Gameplay

Draw and Resolve Turn Cards

  • During a Round, players draw cards, one at a time, from the Turn Deck until it is depleted, resolving the actions or outcomes of each card and then placing them into the Discard Pile.

Players get 3 actions per turn normal or 4 once at least 1 region is destroyed


Reshuffle Turn Cards and Add a Horde Card

  • When their are no more cards left in the Turn Deck, flip the cards in the Discard Pile and add 1 card from the Horde Deck without revealing it. Shuffle these cards together to make a new Turn Deck to start a new Round.


Reveal Epic Foe

  • If there was no Horde Card to add to the Turn Deck this Round, reveal the Epic Foe instead, and place its card next to its Region Card.


Game End

  • The players win the game if they Fight and defeat the Epic Foe, reducing its Hit Points to 0 Health!


Defeat!

  • The players lose the game if the Capital City is Destroyed, its Threat reaching the Destruction Level.
