About the game
Confrontation and Rag'narok merge into one game: Confrontation: The Age of the Rag'Narok. No longer played with single miniatures (Confrontation) or massive units (Rag'narok), each player commands several small units of two to fifteen miniatures. Completely new concepts like Elixir Points and Tactics were added to this game, while it still uses many of the well-known Confrontation traits like an abundance of special abilities and the use of profile cards to determine the activation sequence. The core rules along with profiles for several of the factions are available for download (free of charge) on Rackham's website. Re-implements: Confrontation Rag'narok
