Black Rose Wars: Rebirth*

Black Rose Wars: Rebirth is the second chapter of Ludus Magnus Studio's mage arena: 25 years after the Lodge was destroyed, the mages return to reawaken the Black Rose – and to blast each other to pieces in the tournament. For 1 to 4 players aged 14 and up, 90 to 240 minutes.

How it plays

Each round you secretly programme spells onto your board and execute them in turn order: damage, traps, defences, summons or disabling rival spells. Battle takes place in a hexagonal arena of rooms whose layout governs range and cover. When a mage dies they return to their room – nobody is ever out. Deck-building, missions and asymmetric schools of magic provide enormous variety.

Who is it for?

Expert gamers seeking a competitive, miniature-rich fantasy duel with high interaction. Rebirth is a standalone game and can also be combined with the original Black Rose Wars.
