About the game
How about some more heroes? With more heroes you can get a lot of variety out of your games. You can also play them in solo (either as or against them) and even play 3-4P team games. Components: Mub Zane Hero set Mub Zane AI Sheet: for solo play, requires Imperator expansion. 'Battlecrest is a card-based tactical skirmish game for 2 players (1-4 with expansions). With perfect information, players must truly outwit their opponent to win. Players take turns maneuvering their characters around the dynamic, and often dangerous map while unleashing powerful attacks. As action cards are used they open up new possibilities and empower the character’s battlecrests. Build up to decisive strikes or refocus to get powers back. Every character has a unique set of actions and preferred tactics, so no two battles play the same. —description from the publisher
