About
Battle cards is a simple card game where you need to try and stay alive as long as possible while a constantly escalating stream of monsters are sent your way.How to play
The goal of the game is complete as many turns as possible. To do this you must always have troops in play. If you finish a turn without any troops in play you lose the game.
You gain more troops by playing them from your hand and drawing more cards. Drawing cards and playing cards costs you gold which you need to mine by playing peasants.
Combat
Combat works by each side having 2 rows. The back row and the front row. The back row has ranged units that can only be attacked by other ranged units.
Front row units are your typical melee units which damage each other when they fight.
If a player has no front row units then their back row units can be attacked like front row units.
