About the game
Cleopatra's fell necromancy and the Dvergar's ingenious golem technology have combined once more to produce a monstrosity the likes of which have never before been seen by man. Exhuming the long-dead bodies of the great Sphinxes of the desert, the Queen of the Egyptian Imperium has created massive hulks of undead flesh and steel whose sole purpose is to kill the living! In Arcane Legions, players each field "bases" of variable sizes (Sortie/small and Formation/large) with individual figures inserted into starting positions on the base. The goal is to control victory point areas and inflict losses on the opponent. Movement and battle resolution are conducted through a unique formation management mechanic that allows players to move figures around on the unit bases to increase either movement/melee/ranged combat at the cost of losing capabilities in the other areas. Contents: 2 painted miniatures: 1x Tomb Guardian of Anubis 1x Tomb Guardian of Ostris 2x formation bases 4x formation unit cards
