About the game

Wild Assent’s Shadow of the Silvestrem expansion adds new Assents and Seekers for the players to field in both game modes as well as exciting new gameplay options to add to the variety provided by the core game. It includes: 3D terrain miniatures to replace all of the obstacle tokens for both game modes (excluding the Pits). A new type of Gladiator in the Arena mode: Mercenaries. Mercenaries are treated like Creatures, but they are more traditional humanoid Gladiators and move as squads of three. Drusus, Champion of the Silvestrem, who can be a player character in either the Arena or on the Hunt. Drusus is not an Assent; his Arena troupe must consist of only Mercenaries. Vareclea, the owner of the Silvestrem herself, Wild Assent’s first playable summoner and three of her vile Torments. Boss fights. Players can join together to take down the Fire Lord, Twin Dragon, Drusus or Vareclea in these new cooperative Arena and Hunt mode brawls. A solo prologue for the core game’s story-based campaign, showing how Zaxos, Fani, Illithena and Berlyne met and became Seekers.
