You engage in tactical battles featuring unique hero decks that reflect their style and legend. The game combines Action Points and Movement Points for strategic positioning on the board. Combat is resolved quickly without dice luck via Card Play Conflict Resolution, rewarding tactical decisions. The Line of Sight system allows for ranged attacks and area effects, adding variety to each encounter.
Who Is This Game For?

How It Works
Each player controls a unique hero represented by a custom deck. Using Action Points, players perform movements with Movement Points and execute attacks.

The Line of Sight mechanic determines reachable targets, especially for ranged and area attacks, enabling quick yet strategically rich battles.
