{"product_id":"duel-of-meloch-en","title":"Duel of Meloch (EN)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDuel of Meloch drops you into a tight arena where the worlds of Scythe and Expeditions finally clash face to face, in a 45-minute showdown as fast as it is intense. This \u003cstrong\u003estrategy game\u003c\/strong\u003e stands entirely on its own: one player runs the Scythe side, with a brand-new faction and its own player mat, while the other dives into Expeditions, with a new mech, a new character, and an all-new companion. As long as each of you knows your own system, you're ready to duel, with nothing else required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fight unfolds on a tight double-sided map - only 10 locations and 2 lakes - where every move counts, in a frantic race to 4 stars on a brand-new double-sided Triumph Track. The devious Meloch keeps things close, though: every time a player claims a star, the opponent gets a small boost, keeping the tension alive until the very end. Every faction, player mat, encounter card, and factory card already released for Scythe stays compatible with this box, as do the mechs, characters, companions, and discovery cards from Expeditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuel of Meloch is for you if you have already explored Scythe or Expeditions and have dreamed of pitting these two universes directly against each other in a fast, tactical showdown. Fans of a good \u003cstrong\u003ehead-to-head duel\u003c\/strong\u003e who love tight decisions, resource management, and hefty \u003cstrong\u003ecombat cards\u003c\/strong\u003e will be right at home, whether playing two-player or in \u003cstrong\u003esolo mode\u003c\/strong\u003e against the included Automa system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFun fact: this isn't just a card or two shared between two camps, it's a genuine bridge between two distinct games. Every existing Scythe and Expeditions expansion and box remains usable with Duel of Meloch, making it a rich addition for collectors of both universes. On BoardGameGeek, the game already carries a high complexity rating, close to 3.6 out of 5, confirming its reputation as a demanding duel rather than an entry-level game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game comes from designer Jamey Stegmaier, the mind behind both Scythe and Expeditions, who here orchestrates a meeting of his two creations in a tight, sharply tactical format. The striking visual atmosphere, that blend of western, science fiction, and 1920s aesthetic, carries the signature of Jakub Rozalski, the artist who has shaped Scythe's universe from the very beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBOX CONTENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 double-sided rubber game mat\u003cbr\u003e20 cardboard coins\u003cbr\u003e9 map tokens\u003cbr\u003e1 double-sided Triumph Track\u003cbr\u003e10 Meloch cards\u003cbr\u003e1 Tournament of Meloch sheet\u003cbr\u003e1 rulebook with appendix\u003cbr\u003eScythe side: 20 resource tokens, 3 Factory cards, 60 combat cards, 6 encounter cards, 5 miniatures, 31 wooden tokens, 1 faction mat, 1 player mat, 1 power dial, 1 alliance token, 1 home base tile, 1 rule summary guide\u003cbr\u003eExpeditions side: 12 corruption tokens, 15 workers, 30 discovery cards, 3 starting cards, 1 mech miniature with base snap, 8 wooden tokens, 1 mech mat, 1 power dial, 1 rule summary guide\u003cbr\u003eAutoma solo mode: 1 progress track tile, 1 Triumph Track overlay tile, 20 Automa cards, 6 phase cards, 4 double-sided player aid cards\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of players:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 to 2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 and up\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stonemaier Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49219736830203,"sku":"850064100396","price":66.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/5847\/1419\/files\/duel-of-meloch-en-jeux-deux-joueurs-1255758691.png?v=1787664220","url":"https:\/\/www.asdesjeux.com\/en\/products\/duel-of-meloch-en","provider":"L'As des jeux","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
