Ironwood (FR)

*French version*

Take sides with the Woodwalkers or the Ironclad in an asymmetrical tactical duel.

Each turn, you and your opponent alternate playing a total of 3 faction-specific cards for their action effects. These effects include positioning your warbands, triggering combat, mining crystals, granting temporary passive effects, and more. When it comes time to combat, you'll use the same cards for their combat values, simultaneously attempting to gain combat bonuses, inflict and repel losses, and increase your warbands' dominance value to win the battle.

The two factions are completely asymmetrical in their playstyles, decks, victory conditions - and even the parts of the map they have access to.

As the Ironclad Commander, your primary goal is to lay the foundations for your forges in the Outer Mountains and, once you have collected enough crystals, build forges on top of those foundations.

As the leader of the Woodwalkers, your mission is to locate your people's ancient totems using vision cards, clear the way to them by defeating the Ironclad troops, and finally secure them in the outer forests, out of reach. Once you have recovered the third totem as a leader, or built the third forge as a commander, you immediately win the game.

Ironwood also features a single-player mode against either the Ironclad or the Woodwalkers. While both solo opponents operate on the same principles, each has unique aspects to their faction.
