About the game
Description from the publisher: In the frozen over Targa Plateau, many relics of the past are buried in the ice… left dormant by the alien inhabitants of this once great city.

This 15-card supplement adds a collection of all new Targa Plateau Artifacts for Shadows of Brimstone, themed around ancient alien technology and the lost terrors preserved in the ice for millennia. A collection of 15 Artifact cards for use with the Shadows of Brimstone: City of the Ancients core set. Roughly doubles the number of artifacts available for the Targa Plateau Otherworld.
