Description

BattleLore: Call to Arms is an exciting expansion to the popular BattleLore game system, designed by Richard Borg and first released in 2007. This expansion takes the game to a whole new level by allowing players to personalize their troop deployment, adding a fresh layer of strategy to each 60-minute game. Gone are the days of predetermined scenarios and troop placement - with Call to Arms, players can choose from various pre-defined battle maps or even create their own, and then use the innovative Deployment deck to set up their armies as they see fit. This new system enables players to react to the land, establish reserves, and gain the initiative by out-scouting their opponent, making each game a unique and thrilling experience. The expansion also introduces a more organized deployment system through the Feudal Levy system, complete with new tokens that correspond to the three color types of troops. Additionally, players can choose two Specialist cards during set-up, which offer a range of benefits, from upgrading archers to long bows to increasing unit size based on the player's Warrior Level. With new terrain hexes and a range of customization options, Call to Arms offers a fun and challenging experience for fans of the BattleLore series, and is easy to learn, making it accessible to new players as well. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just starting out, BattleLore: Call to Arms is a great way to experience the game in a whole new way, with endless possibilities for strategy and excitement.
