About the game
Game description from the publisher: Unleash a dragon's fire with BattleLore (Second Edition): Great Dragon Reinforcement Pack! This Reinforcement Pack features a Great Dragon that can be included in any army, alongside three new lore cards to customize your lore deck and a unique terrain tile. With the Great Dragon in your army, you can defend your hoard of treasure, or unleash a devastating firestorm on any unit that dares to approach! What's more, this Reinforcement Pack includes a pre-built scenario: "Into the Fire". In this scenario, both armies start on one side of the battlefield and they must race to be the first to overpower the Great Dragon and claim its hoard. Whether you use the Great Dragon in this scenario or muster him with your army, it brings an undeniable threat to every game of BattleLore (Second Edition).
