Oathen: Blitz társasjáték

Angol leírás

A riveting card game for 2-6 players that combines the classic thrill of War with the strategic depth of Rock-Paper-Scissors, and introduces Blitz Cards - powerful abilities that turn the tides of battle, changing winning conditions, or giving players an edge over their opponents through attacks and counters.

In Oathen: Blitz, you'll take part in an epic battle between three powerful factions: the Norn, followers of the old Gods and the old ways; the Nivet, defenders of the many realms; and the Akhul, the orken clans of the Jotnar. These three armies are locked in a brutal war for Midgard.

Every round players flip over the top card of their War Deck, a randomly dealt collection of cards that feature one of the three factions and a unique strength value. Victory is determined by which factions are present in the battle (Norn beats Nivet, Nivet beats Akhul, and Akhul beats Norn.) If all three factions are present in the battle, the winners are determined by which faction has the highest combined strength of their combatants.

However, war is never so simple..

At any time during the game, players can choose to play one of their Blitz Cards – an arsenal of instant play abilities that change the conditions of battle; such as switching the faction of your war card to be among the victors, annihilating an opponent's card to remove them from battle, or directly attacking and destroying cards from another player's War Deck - these Blitz Cards add a layer of unpredictability and strategic play through player chosen actions.

As the war wages on, cards are permanently removed from the game, escalating the intensity. Players must battle with dwindling forces, maneuvering through the ever-increasing stakes until only one player emerges victorious.
