Description

Master the flanks. Master your foe. Assemble your army and clash in a 2-player fantasy game of tactics, cards, and cunning. Battle across 3 Flanks. Win one. Claim victory. A RIFT has torn our lands apart. The ancient capital and Emperor are gone, transported to another world, as armies vie for power. But only one can be victorious. General... The time is now. Prove your worth, and claim the Emperor's throne! HOW IT PLAYS: Cards are military units (Light, Ranged, Cavalry, or Heavy) with Power values and abilities. DRAFT a unique deck every game from an ever-changing card pool. BATTLE across 3 Flanks, where each round follows four steps: REINFORCEMENTS: Reveal new cards available to both players this round. 1ST DEPLOYMENT: In each Flank, the Attacker Deploys a card, then the Defender responds. 2ND DEPLOYMENT: A second card is Deployed in each Flank, but the Defender plays their cards Hidden. RESOLVE: The Attacker assigns which cards Clash, Hidden cards are revealed, Power is compared, and whoever wins more Clashes in a Flank removes health from it. If no victory is won, roles switch, and a new round of Battle begins. —description from the designer
