About the game
The Breach is a Skytear expansion with 4 Victory Cards and 60 Power Cards (20 unique cards in 3 copies each). The walls of Ahasa have long kept the enemies outside, until now. The defensive lines have finally been broken and heroes from all over Olan Taa have come to fight for their realms. Enhanced by their Skytear mastery after the Ashen Pass, they are now able to exploit inner energy beyond conception. -description from publisher
