Out now
It's chess, but with deckbuilding and dragons.
Draft a 100-point formation of Dragons, Necromancers and exploding forts, then outwit, outmanoeuvre or out-explode your opponent.
The pieces

Pick a piece and watch what it does. Every scene follows the game's real rules.
The Fusefort holds the line. Black's knight fancies it.
Fusefort
15 pts- Moves and captures orthogonally.
- Explosive: when captured, or when it captures, it explodes and destroys the pieces left and right of it, and whatever captured it.
Six of 20+ pieces. The rest are in the game, and the free demo has a selection.
