About the game
Kings and Legends is an expansion supplement for Kings of War which contains rules for a host of Living Legends, mighty heroes and villains who bring even more character to the world of Mantica. Most of the Living Legends from the Kings of War book make an appearance, with expanded backgrounds and additional rules which let you customize units in their army to reflect the forces they fought alongside. There are also several new Living Legends, including several who were created with the direct input of the Kings of War community. Finally, the book contains the brand-new Ogre force list. No longer confined to the Kingdoms of Men force list as mercenaries, the Ogres can now take to the field as an entire army in their own right!

Questions and answers
The catalogue lists Kings of War: Kings and Legends for ages 10 and up.

Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Kings of War: Kings and Legends belongs to these categories: Fantasy, Wargame, and Miniatures. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Kings of War: Kings and Legends are: Alessio Cavatore. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers.

The catalogue lists Kings of War: Kings and Legends as an expansion for Kings of War. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Kings of War to use it. Check that your edition of Kings of War is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
