About the game
From the Fantasy Flight Games Website: "During the Dragon Wars, the free cities of Terrinoth created powerful Items as tokens for their champions. They gave these Artifacts, Weapons, Armor, and even Allies (in the form of magical animal statues that come to life) to the Heroes of the land. Now the Relics of Legend are scattered, but great power will come to those who gather them. The Relics of Legend expansion pack adds new Market cards - both items and allies - to the Runebound: Second Edition basic game. There are no new rules to learn, simply shuffle the cards into the market deck and begin playing. This expansion includes 30 new market cards." Belongs to the Runebound Series.

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Runebound: Relics of Legend is 120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Runebound: Relics of Legend for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. 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.
Runebound: Relics of Legend has a complexity rating of 2.2 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
