Get ready for an epic adventure in the world of Terrinoth with Runebound: The Scepter of Kyros, an expansion to the popular base game Runebound: Second Edition. This exciting addition introduces a new threat to the land, as the Giant Lords return to wreak havoc and conquer the world. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 6 players can embark on a thrilling 120-minute journey, navigating the challenges and dangers that come with this new enemy.

As players explore the world of Terrinoth, they'll encounter new Encounters and Events that replace those in the base game, adding freshness and variety to the gameplay experience. The blue challenge cards represent the formidable Giant Lords, who will stop at nothing to occupy and destroy the cities of Terrinoth. But players aren't without hope - with the right skills and strategy, they can defeat these giants and save the world. The expansion includes 30 new cards, featuring green and yellow Events and Encounters, as well as 18 blue Challenges that will put players' abilities to the test. When 8 Giant Lords have been defeated, the game takes a dramatic turn, as the giants launch a final assault on the cities, using items from the marketplace to aid their conquest. Designed by Robert Vaughn and Andrew Navaro, Runebound: The Scepter of Kyros is a must-have expansion for fans of the Runebound series. First published in 2005, this expansion has stood the test of time, offering a fun and challenging experience that's perfect for adventure and fantasy enthusiasts.
