Realm Raiders is a card game entry for 2-4 players, all print and play rules are included. A post compo tutorial video has been added for those who don't like reading rules.
The idea behind the game is that you are a commander of a warring army hellbent on conquering three other realms, all four realms are connected by a tiny midway dimension and this is where the game takes place. The game gets really hectic really fast and all players will have to use large amounts of planning to make the battlefield work in their favor.
Should be "Print + Play", not "Web". Web is for directly playable browser-games. Despite that, looks quite interesting, especially since I'm a cardgames publisher.
Do you place might on a spellcaster and then cast it on another unit later ? Or do you place it on any unit on action phase ?
if might have been placed or cast on a spellsword what happens on a clash ? does the spellsword pass the might to the other unit ?
I'm not sure to understand the uturn description. if I must attach it face up on the target it means that once casted on a facing opponent unit it can player again and again on each turn since the target will be on my control. Is there something I miss here ?
All spells are attached to spellcasters first, then cast on other units. If might has been cast on a spellsword then the might transfers on a clash like any other spell attached to a spell sword (even if this would put it on an enemy unit). If the U turn is cast on an opponents spellcaster, and that spellcater enters your control, then you can cast the spell again next turn as if it was readied this turn instead (Spells that are attached on spell casters by being cast on them have to go through a ready step). If you cast a might on a spellcaster, that spellcaster can cast it again next turn but cannot have another spell attached in the meantime. Each card can only have one spell attached to them, if a spell would attach to a unit and that unit already has a spell attached, then you cant cast a spell on that unit. So for example, if a defender had might attached, then a U-turn spell can't be cast on that defender as it already has a spell attached. Hope this answers some of your questions Ben. :D
some other questions : If might is attached to a spellcaster and then casted on an other spellcaster, on the next turn it can be casted again, but do the player HAVE TO play the spell ? and it goes the same for others spell, can I wait to play a spell until the best occasion or do i have to cast it when it's ready ?
One last question : Are spell discarded after one use ? I assumed that they were but after reading the rules again I'm not so sure about it.
there are games for people 20 years old, people 30 years old, people 40 years old, people 50 years old... and this game which has the true retro (REETTRRROOOOOOO) experience into the jam!
WOW, thank you Ben, I cant believe you did this. I'm am amazed at how good it looks and plays. Sorry i didn't get back to you sooner i have been away for a few days. As a response to your questions, yes when a spell is ready you have to cast it. When you cast any spell on a spell caster it cant be cast till next turn. Any spell that doesn't get attached to a unit gets discarded after use.
Took me a little getting used to, but it's pretty neat. I was surprised I won against the AI in the web version, but I'm not sure if the AIs were doing the "play a tile in the left or right area" option.

Hint: try the jam and make a videogame out of it.

I guess my understanding of the rules is not good enough so it maybe not 100% accurate, plz let me now about it
